2007 Chevrolet Suburban Cruise Control Issues
I have a 2007 Chevy Suburban LTZ with the 6.0L. I love it. We've taken two long road trips with 4 kids and all of the luggage in the back. Awesome!
During these trips, we've noticed problems with the cruise control. There are times when the cruise is engaged and it cuts out. I've noticed that this happens if the road gets extremely rough, but it also cuts-out on smooth, flat stretches. I'm not concerned about the disengagement on a rough patch of road. But, I would like the cut-outs on the smooth roads to stop. Also, there are times when the 'power' light for the cruise control on the steering wheel will not come 'on'. Certainly, we can't set the cruise speed, if the system doesn't turn on.
Are there any suggestions on what can be checked?

Have the same year/trim vehicle, with the regular engine and just finished a 2500 mile 2 week trip with 2 adults and 2 college girls......great traveling vehicle. Never had a cruise control issue in any Suburban I've owned.
Consider replacing the switch if at all suspect.
My issue was the brake pedal position sensor. I replaced the sensor and now have no issues with my cruise control.
Thanks for all the help!
