Cruise Control Malfunction

I am going to keep this short and simple.

Cruise control was working, then I Installed a Unichip with the clutch switch for launch control. Cruise control stopped working. Removed unichip, cruise control still not working.

Installed OFT and flashed with a new tune. Cruise control still not working.

NO CEL's, Cruise control is green lit but does not engage.
Car is 6mt
No other mods have been done.

Any tips on what I should look for?

Normally the clutch switch disengages the cruise control when the clutch pedal is depressed. With your foot off the clutch, there should be ~12 volts running through that circuit. Press in the clutch, that should drop to 0 volts to tell the computer to kill cruise.

My guess is that whatever you have done with the clutch switch is causing the car to think you have the clutch depressed. I would start there with a multimeter.

Just ran through the manual and didn't find a specific fuse labeled for cruise control.

I will break out the multimeter tomorrow and check the volts a long with any possible blown fuses.

Thanks for the advice, I will report back with any findings.

I resolved the issue. No fuses or wiring problems.

I feel very stupid but this was the issue.

I had adjusted the clutch pedal and at that time I also adjusted the clutch switch. Apparently there is another spot right below the correct position for the switch which it can also be placed in. So I just put the clutch switch in the wrong spot so it was never engaging/disengaging.
