1995 Dodge 3500 5 speed help

I swapped my 95 3500 to a 5 speed and ive been looking for info on how I can make the cruise control work again I currently have the netural safety wires connected together to make it start but have read you have to do something with them to make it work again and I haven't found much info of what actually has to be done, any help is appreciated. Thanks

I believe on my 98 the old neutral safety switch on the auto grounded the starter circuit. Clutch switch did the same thing (jumper left in under dash for auto) so PCM sees it as the clutch being in, which disengages cruise control. The wire that gets grounded through the old neutral safety switch needs to run through the clutch switch, basically.

Ok thanks for the help I will try when I get my truck back from having a service body installed, and will let you know what I find. Thanks, Dominic

Clutch, gear selector, and brakes are all connected to the Cruise circuit. If any of those show an open the cruise will Not engage / disengage.
Brake light switch is always a little bugger because it can get out of line by reaching up under the dash to look at wires like to set up a new radio.
