Does the clutch switch serve any purpose aside from cruise control?
Does the clutch switch (on clutch pedal bracket) do anything that doesn't have to do with the cruise control? If it doesn't, and I am removing the cruise control am I safe to remove the switch and replace it with a rubber bumper so the pedal arm has something to rest against?
thanks, James |
The clutch switch is used to enable the starter.

I'm not sure why, but it does have an effect on idle. After fixing a faulty switch on a friends car, his idle problem disappeared. I suggest that you repair/replace it, and reinstall.

Didn't know that, thanks for the correction.

ah, i was not aware there were two clutch switches... that explains why i have to push the clutch in to start the car, but the cruise control shoots the RPMs up if i push the clutch in with the cruise control engaged...

Yep you probably have to do the same thing I just did. It's very easy to fix, check this other thread:
