Default Switches on Pedals..

There are 2 Switches on the Brake Pedal in these cars..one of the Switches has 2 Connectors going to it, the other has one.

I know that they control 3 things..

1. Brake Lights
2. Cruise Control Dis-engage
3. Convertor Lock/Unlock

My question is which one does what?

For some reason I remember the Switch that has 2 Connectors controlling the Lights and the Convertor, and the little one for the Cruise Control.

I'm kinda away from the car at the moment otherwise I would look..I'm trying to help someone out with something so that is why I ask.

Thanks.

I edited it a little bit..I was helping someone find a switch and to wire something.

What I needed it for was so I can get Cruise Control to work as it would with a T56 in my LT1 Car.

What I'm going to do is move the Cruise Switch over to the Clutch Petal, and cut the Connector from the Convertor Wiring, and wire that into one side of the Cruise Switch. It will be wired in Series, so when I push the Brake OR the Clutch it will dis-engage the Cruise if I have it on.

For a 1998 and back car this will work cause the Cruise has it's own seperate Module, you guys with 1999 and up cars that have the Cruise in the Harness have to do some extra wiring to get that Clutch Anticipation Switch in, that is what I have read anyways, I don't know how it goes.
