• Q: How to Replace and Adjust the Brake Light Switch for Cruise Control on 2001 Cadillac Eldorado?

  A: Left insulator panel removal must be the first step before changing the cruise release switch. The process starts with turning the upper switch counterclockwise before uninstalling its electrical connector. After installation start be sure to position the Brake Pedal at the full up position in order to avoid break system damage and switch misadjustment. The upper switch electrical connector needs connection before installation of the upper switch into the upper retainer placement at the 6 o'clock position. Next adjust the switch after the assembly of brake booster pushrod to Brake Pedal assembly. Install the left insulator panel as the last step. The correct adjustment of stoplamp switches remains vital because improper settings generate both brake drag issues and fast wear of brake linings together with possible cruise control system malfunctions.
