Hi,

 

I know this topic has been repeated a lot, and I know the first step is using VCDS to check the clutch switch and/or brake switch. But the cruise control isn't working on my 59 plated 1.9Tdi Fabia II.

 

I'm currently struggling to find somewhere that has VCDS available that isn't a main dealer (and is currently open) which is near me. I'm also being a bit lazy in asking, would you expect to be able to start my Fabia without the clutch depressed? Because if that isn't expected/normal then it would also indicate that the clutch switch has gone. 

 

It's not an urgent issue, hence my inital laziness with it. 

In ordinary circumstances, at that age at least, a Fabia should be able to start up without the clutch being depressed. I am aware some cars now NEED the clutch to be depressed, prior to starting or they simply will not start but Fabia's should! 

 

Just as a thought,I do not have cruise control but I doubt that would make a difference, normally, without a fault.

 

Have you started by checking any appropriate fuses and also, checking the battery is fully charged?
