Title: Cruise Control Switches
Post by: furrymunkey on 17 December 2009, 13:23:32
I have a question re brake switch for Omega cruise control. I have a 97 Omega 2.0 CD and have fitted all the other parts for cruise control and only have to fit the brake and clutch switches. I was told I needed a 4 pin brake switch so I went out and bought one at the cost of £24.50, fitted it then found that the connection for my orignal brake switch has only 2 pins. Is that all that is needed or would I have to get a feed to the other 2 pins from somewhere else?. I have also been advised that my old 2 pin brake switch should work as a clutch switch?. I'd appreciate any advise as this is driving me nuts.

Forgot to add....it's a manual

Some early manuals are wired to only need a 2 pin brake switch

Thanks TB. Only thing I can do is try it. Do you know if a brake switch can be used as clutch switch?. My VX stealer wants £45 for a clutch one.
