Cruise Control Disengaged
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Pontiac Aztek and 2004 Buick Rendezvous. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The cruise control release switch and stoplamp switch are used to disengage the cruise control. A release switch assembly and a stoplamp switch assembly are mounted on the brake pedal bracket. To disengage the system the driver presses the brake pedal. The speed of the vehicle at brake actuation will be stored in the memory of the cruise module. The cruise control module uses that stored speed when the cruise control system operation is resumed.
