I am in the process of installing cruise control on my 1983 Venture Standard.
I have purchased almost all of the items I need to do this upgrade from ebay.
Prior to installing the parts, I will be disassembling the ones that I can and cleaning them.
I have made the following write up of the process of cleaning the throttle side switch housing that came off of a 1988 Venture. The pictures show the switch completely removed from the bike.
It is fairly lengthy, 41 pictures, but thorough.
I would recommend removing switch from bike if you perform this cleaning. There are a number of small springs and ball detents that are very easy to lose unless you have a large well lit working area.
If you are unable to open the PDF file, PM me with your email address and I will send it to you.
Let me know if you find this helpful, as I also have the left side controls, brake and clutch switches I can do.
Picture below is of the switch detailed in this PDF file.
