Cruise control
Computer problem
1998 Ford Contour 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual 110000 miles
When the cruise control is on and I hit a bump in the road the cruise control will shut off. I can put my foot under the brake pedal and put slight pressure on it and the cruise control will stay on. I have replaced the brake pedal switch but the control will still shut off with a bump. Any ideas????
