CrosslandX Clutch Switch Fault

I'm having trouble with my 2023 Vauxhall CrosslandX diesel. It has 238994 km. The error log shows a faulty clutch pedal switch. The gear selection display in the speedometer isn't working, cruise control is malfunctioning, and sometimes it won't start. Is this a common electrical fault?

I had a similar issue with my CrosslandX. I had the same symptoms: the gear selection indicator failing, cruise control not working, and the engine sometimes refusing to start. The cable or plug connection might be defective, but the electrical system in these cars can be quite sensitive. Have you checked the wiring harness for damage?

Thanks. I've checked the wiring harness and connectors near the clutch switch. I didn't see any damage. Was the problem just the wiring, or did the switch need to be replaced?

In my case, the shop said the clutch switch was faulty, but it was probably due to a short in the wiring that damaged the switch. Given your symptoms, it might be good to see a qualified technician with diagnostic equipment. My repair bill was 95€. It will save some time.

Thanks for the advice. I had a technician inspect the car. They confirmed a defective clutch pedal switch. Replacing it fixed everything you described. Thanks for your help.
