TCC/Brake Light Switch (Malibu)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2003 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2003 Buick Century. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
On Malibu, the TCC/Brake switch and brake light switch control the cruise control release signal and the brake light signal. These signal circuits are used to disengage the cruise control. The switch assemblies are mounted on the brake pedal bracket. See Fig 1 . To disengage the system electrically the driver presses the brake pedal. The speed of the vehicle at brake actuation will be stored in the memory of the cruise module.
