Removal of Cruise Control

So I have removed most of the cruise control stuff from my car except this part of the wiring loom that appears to only be for the Cruise control stalk and possibly some other stuff which all appears to come back to one pin on the yellow connector on wiring loom. i was planning on taking the pin out with a tool but if that doesn't work next thing was to cut the wiring and cap it off so to speak. Does anybody know if anything else other than cruise control comes off this one pin?

So to answer my own question here for future ref for others. Pin 1 on the yellow connector originally goes to the brake pedal switch. The cruise control harness was subsequently tied in there to pin 1 and the brake pedal switch was tied downstream into the cruise control harness, which also has the vacuum switches for the other pedals also. Used the tool and removes the cruise control harness pin from the yellow connector and removed the original brake pedal switch pin from the cruise control harness and plugged that into pin one. Cruise control harness now removed and brake pedal switch still working. Job done, on to the next one.
