Well. There is no power to that vacuum switch. Probably the problem

No idea why because I haven't had time to check yet, but my torque converter decided to lock this morning. Truck holds speed so much better!
I have never driven with it locked, it is nice!

That's odd, when locked it should be turning less rpm which would make it harder to hold speed.

Figured it out, I think my brake switch is flaky. It wasn't working well tonight, mess with pedal or switch and it would start to work. Verified when I got home with meter. Easy enough fix I hope, should be able to just turn switch in out would a new switch be better?

New brake switch and convertor works 100% correctly now. Hoping my be cruise release switch fixes my cruise too, still waiting for that to arrive however
