Weird cruise control behaviour

    Hi everybody.

    The cruise control on my '68 Riv has been behaving weird ever since I got it. The problem is that the cruise light + some kind of relay engages without me touching the switch. This happens randomly.. Fortunately the cruise control itself does not engage, that would be kind of dangerous.. When I press down on the brake, it disengages like it's supposed to, then stays off at idle. Then it engages again when I press down on the throttle...

    The only way I can make it stay off is by driving above the engagement limit (30mph?) and engaging the cruise manually like I'm supposed to, then disengaging it... it will then stay off until some random time when it will again engage like I described above... any ideas on what could be causing this / done to fix it?

    Thanks in advance!
