I have a 2010 370Z that I purchased over a year ago. I went to use the Cruise Control today and it did not work. I had never tried it

The switches on the clutch may need adjusted.

There is also a switch on the brake pedal that can cause the problem.

There is a switch above the clutch pedal and a switch behind the brake pedal that tell cruise control to switch off if either pedal is depressed. One or both may need adjustment or cleaning if an adjustment doesn't work. You can take them apart to clean them or just replace them.

Default cruise control switch

I have an 09 370 automatic. My cruise control also went dead. I figure it is the switch. Found it behind the brake but what I'm finding on Utube to change it doesn't quite conform to what I'm seeing. Not finding anything on here either. I've change them on both pedals on a 300tt. are there any pics or instructions on the Forum?
Thanks

Lots of info on cruise control in the FSM (link in my sig).

Plenty of discussion, and possibly some pics, on this site - search is your friend. If you don't like this site's search function, add "site:the370z.com" to your search string at DuckDuckGo, Google, etc.

There's a switch at the top and bottom of the brake pedal travel. IINM either one can cause issues with the cruise control.

This is the top switch for the clutch pedal, but the brake switches look basically the same. There is a connector at one end and a pin at the other end that either sticks out a little or is pressed in by a rubber stop on the pedal. The switch screws into the pedal assembly.
