Have you checked you vacuum lines?   Ethan Makarowski (Ethan) New Member Username: Ethan Post Number: 11 Registered: 04-2003 Posted on Sunday, May 11, 2003 - 09:10 pm:    Where are the vacuum lines located?... I haven't had a chance to pick up a shop manual yet. The cruise on my '94 doesn't work either. Thanks, EM   James Moy (Jmoy97) New Member Username: Jmoy97 Post Number: 13 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, May 12, 2003 - 12:12 am:    checked the vacuum lines no leaks and all connected. jim   Robert Sublett (Rubisco98) Senior Member Username: Rubisco98 Post Number: 835 Registered: 04-2002 Posted on Monday, May 12, 2003 - 07:06 am:    James, FWIW, I've had to replace the vacuum pump itself on my '96 and now on my wife's '99. I guess that switch could go bad but I would lean more toward the vacuum pump just b/c of my replacing two thus far. Later..

After loosing the cruise control I traced the vacuum lines, because I heard they are almost always the culprit and found near the brake switch a dangling unattached vacuum line. I'm sure this is the problem, but where does it connect? I can't see where under there (alot of wires)! Can anyone advise me here as well? Might be the other James' problem as well.   James Moy (Jmoy97) New Member Username: Jmoy97 Post Number: 14 Registered: 02-2003 Posted on Monday, May 12, 2003 - 06:00 pm:    Robert how do you get to the Vacuum Pump?

Its about half way up, there is a spot for the vacum line to go into and and electrical connection for the cruise as well. It would be very easy for someone to accidently disconnect this while fixing brake light switch.
