Cruise control still broke

Ok, my cruise switch was broke so I replaced it, and it worked for a week, now something else in the cruise control system isnt working. I put the switch on another Camaro and it worked, so it isnt the switch. What else could it be? How do I go about fixing it?

Now my cruise all of a sudden works, but it sometimes turns off for no reason. I guess I can live with that.

Have you checked the cruise control module under the dash on the passenger side?

when it doesn't work try putting your foot behind the brake pedal and pull up if it works then . the brake switch is either out of adjustment or is going bad and needs replaced
