CRUSE CONTROL FAILING

[French Letter]

On occasions the cruise control on the RCZ ceases to operate. This has happened to my Peugeot 207cc Sport. Fixed it by replacing the brake light switch.

So, I replaced it on the RCZ.

Strange that brake light switch to effect cruise control..

I'm guessing it assumes you're braking. So kicks the CC off.
Exactly the same in the 407, I had them fail in both of mine. No cruise and permanently lit brake lights.
On the 407 it's mounted on the brake bar (because r/h drive) under the passenger side of the dash.
Great fun.

This is my story with the cruise control, maybe can help
Many times but not every day, always in the morning, the cruise control was not working. After 10 -20 km the cruise control was miraculously working fine . I could not understand why!
One day I started to play with the left foot and lift the brake and the clutch pedal and I found out that the cruise control was starting to work fine.
After some test, I found out that in the morning the clutch pedal was not lifting completely and in that position, the cruise control was not working.
Just a little help lifting the clutch pedal with the left foot, just a cm, and this was solving the problem! After this first help, it was not necessary to do this anymore.
