Default Cruise Control Failure

Well after thinking I didn't do any damage when my clutch pedal went out discussed in this thread:

https://ls1tech.com/forums/manual-tr...ut-clutch.html

Ever since I had to shift without the clutch, my cruise control no longer works. I don't understand how cruise control interacts with the transmission but I assume I fucked something up. Does anybody have any suggestions on where to start troubleshooting this issue?

The switch up above the clutch pedal probably either broke or just got popped out of position.

Clutch switch probably needs adjusting

Thanks, my response is a little delayed but I wanted to report that the issue was with the upper clutch switch. The c-clip broke off that held the pedal to the cylinder and I think when I had it fixed the upper switch mount was displaced and therefore the switch was not being fully depressed.

Reinstalling the plastic switch mount resolved the cruise control problem.
