Question Running without Cruze Amplifier....any problems??

Folks,
From what I can tell, I should not have any difficulties if I remove my Cruise Control Amplifier and still drive the car. I have looked over the schematic (#111) in the Electrical Troubleshooting Manual, and it does not appear that it will have any effect on the Tachometer and stuff like that......

Also: from reading the schematic, the Cruise Control Amp senses a ground thru the brake lights.....so it probably won't work if you have burned out brake lights.....

Thanx,
SB

I understand the brake light deal is correct. Don't know how there will be any problems running unplugged. The CC does not work on the SD, have a couple from boneyard, haven't yet run a test.
