If so, if you tap the brake pedal, does it cancel the cruise? YES
If both work, then the code is baloney. OK cool, that's a relief then, will just move on and not give it further concern as drives as it should and without fault.
Many thanks to all that have posted here, much appreciated.
If you have an automatic then most likely your brake light switch is defective and it could be intermittent. You can try testing to see if the brake lights light up when you tap the brake pedal. The symptoms mentioned by PizzaGuy and myself are more likely to present themselves when you have an actual BAS/ESP light.
The brake light switch is cheap and easy to change.
