Default cruise control brake switch

Can some one tell me where the location of the cruise brake switch/relay is located on an 81.

The switch is part of the turn signal lever on a 78, wire feeds through the column and plugs into a separate harness for the cruise control.

The brake switch for the cruise is part of the regular brake switch and mounted to a bracket above your brake pedal. The control soleniod is part of the cruise transducer and is mounted to the left inner fender skirt, below the master cylinder.

ok, thanks for the replie's, god bless bubba,,,,cause I damn sure won't. Replacing the cruise after bubba got ahold of it is turning into a major project. Can anyone answer some questions about testing electrical readings at the transducer and resume solonoid? If so pm me

Thanks

Bill
