MAXGEAR 21-0293 Cruise Control Clutch Switch

The MAXGEAR 21-0293 is a pedal-mounted safety switch used on vehicles fitted with cruise control. Depressing the clutch (or, on some applications, the brake) trips this switch and tells the cruise control module to disengage immediately, so the system can’t keep the throttle open while you’re changing gear or braking.

When this part fails, the usual signs are cruise control that won’t disengage on the clutch, cruise control that won’t engage at all, or a check-engine or cruise-fault warning light. Swapping the switch is usually the fix once it’s confirmed as the fault, rather than a symptom of something bigger.

This listing is an aftermarket replacement, not a genuine dealer part. Before ordering, check it against OE number 6Q0 927 189 on your original part. Switches like this are shared across several models within a platform, so an exact number match matters more than the model name.

Installation is a straightforward unplug-and-replace job on most applications: disconnect the wiring connector, remove the old switch (usually a bayonet twist, a threaded body, or a single retaining clip depending on the design), and fit the replacement in reverse order. No calibration is normally needed, though it’s worth testing the function it controls before buttoning the panel back up.
