Indeed the ceramic substrate is pretty delicate, I managed to break a corner off mine when I was trying to clean it & also now have a resistor in it's place. I think I need to re-calculate though as still get the occasional "engine service required" above 60mph & the cruise hasn't worked since (I understand that dipping the clutch with cruise engaged would be foolish with the resistor "mod", so that's worth noting if you're used to using a clutch tap to disengage cruise.)
