I just got my '98 Trans Am (6-speed manual) out of the shop after having the clutch hydraulics and clutch assembly replaced. Now my cruise control doesn't work. It was working up to the moment I took it to the shop. Did they likely leave something unplugged? This is certainly something they've done, but I want to speak intelligently on the subject. I want to be prepared for the argument of, "we don't go anywhere near that, so it couldn't be what we did".
EDIT: I found this thread after I posted here. However, there's no posted resolution. Like a newb I posted before searching adequately.
I did think the height of the clutch pedal is lower now than it was, but it could just be my imagination. I'd gotten used to driving my wife's manual transmission truck while my car was in the shop.
If it is related to clutch height, will it be a simple fix or are they gonna have to pull the transmission again?

The cruise control disengage switch mentioned above is very easy to adjust. All you do it push the back of it until the switch is engaged by the clutch pedal arm. Also very easy to get to. Just pull the access panel under the steering wheel. Makes sure you don't rip the wire for the hatch switch.
