I would expect that too, execept that on the '93 and '94 there is no clutch
switch. The Park/Neutral connection on the PCM is permanently grounded. Even
on the '95, the manual shows a clutch safety switch but there is no
connection to the cruise control. It only grounds the Park/Neutral line on
the PCM when you depress the clutch pedal. That is what puzzles me.
