I tried the break light (as funny as that sounds) but no luck. Any other suggestions?

do all your brake lights work? its not funny because the cruise control runs through it and as a safety feature it wotn work if the brakes arnt all functional. why you think the cruise control turns off when the brakes are pushed?
