Default Cruise Control Has Stopped Working

Last night I got into my car after work and got onto the highway. When I got up to 65 mph I turned on my cruise control, light came on, but when I went to set it... nothing happened. I have searched through the threads and found owners with a similar issue, but no resolution. I have already reset the ECU and adjusted the sensor on the clutch this morning and still, nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have considered that maybe the pedal switch has died. Does anyone have any idea what one costs as well? I have a '05 Touring, all stock.

I also found a mention about the sensor on the brake pedal, if it's not engaged it will trick the ASCD into thinking you are breaking and will cause it not to work. I checked it as well, and it seems to be fine.

Thanks for all the help guys! Turns out the clutch switch just needed to be adjusted a little more. Another turn and a half and everythings working fine now!
