Giulietta Clutch Switch Stuck - cruise control broken

319 Views 4 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  devu4
Hi, I recently found out that my cruise control stopped working and also the graphic on my dashboard to change gears no longer appears.

After further inspection I noticed that the clutch switch is stuck and my clutch no longer touches the yellow tab. I have included image below. (Hard to see but yellow thing isn't touching bar coming from clutch). I've tried pulling it back which releases the yellow tab but when I press the clutch down again it gets stuck.

Does anyone have any idea for an easy fix or how I would go about removing and replacing it completely. I can find the whole switch online for £20 so wouldn't want to take it to a garage if I can do it myself.

Not sure about replacing it, but have you tried WD40 or contact cleaner? It may just be gummed up with crud. Easier and cheaper than replacing the switch.

I thought you would have. I don’t think I’ve heard mine click. I’m not sure how it’s mounted - if it’s threaded and held by a nut the whole switch could have moved, so the plunger is travelling further than it should and getting stuck. If it’s clipped in place I guess that wouldn’t be the problem. Just thinking out loud really….
