If I understand your post correctly two code numbers stand out. The first is #34 which idicates a problem in the cruise control circuit and needs to be diagnosed by a qualified tech. The second is #55 which is the end of code output number.

You said you had a code 34. That's the speed control shorted or open circuit, not the AC clutch (code 33). Unplug the cruise control motor and see if the light goes out. And check for cut or pinched wires.
I'm no electrician so I can't help with these repairs.
