Customers having this concern should have their vehicle repaired using the following procedure.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
1. Verify customer concern.
2. Remove the front passenger side trim to access cruise control module.
3. Disconnect the cruise control module connector (Q-O1) and attach a digital OHM meter equipped with a beeper to connector terminals V/R (violet/red) and P (pink).
4. Loosen the brake switch lock nut.
5. Adjust the brake switch so that the OHM meter beeper sounds continuously with the brake pedal in the upper position.
Note
