Re: Cruise Control won't turn on!!
Brake pedals are returned to a stop by a spring, the brake pedal height is not influenced by the wear on the pads, any extra fluid required to make up the volume that has been increased by the pistons position is made up automatically by the reservoir on the return stroke of the master piston in the reservoir. Failure of this spring would allow the pedal to drop and imitate the pedal movement that switches off the speed control, that would be a doubtful reason though, but who knows.
As the speed control switch appears to accellerate the car, I would think that what is stopping the system from setting the speed is something to do with a signal that says the brakes are in use, the minimum speed has not been reached, or that the car is in park. Is there something amiss at the throttle body motor which presumably is the component that holds the speed? I shall keep looking, but I can see it is a real puzzle.
