Then, after doing a speed increase it cut out and refused to do anything, even using the slider to turn it off and back on. 
Luckily I was able to stop easily (advanced planning  ) and turn the ignition off and on, after which it started behaving again. 
So are there any further inputs or thought from anyone on these old/revised/renewed questions:
1. Has anyone experienced the CC system needing a reset of any sort after a glitch or have any idea why? (both why glitches and why reset)
2. Is there any way of taking apart the CC switch section without taking it off the car to investigate/adjust/clean the contacts?
