WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Montego, 2006 Ford Freestyle, and 2006 Ford Five Hundred. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The speed control deactivator switch interrupts the power signal to the powertrain control module (PCM) through circuit 307 (BK/YE) when the brake pedal is applied firmly and passes the stoplamp switch trip point. This is a redundant signal to the PCM.
