check the brake light switch. try this, as you try to set the cruise pull UP on the brake pedal, if it works the brake light switch is out of adjustment.

Check the wiring harness in the steering column, there is a plug that tends to work loose, right at the bottom of the column under the lower cover.

" put a hose on it suck put your tongue over hose

I'm not sure I would of ever thought of using my tongue with a hose as a vacume gauge, it sounds like it would work pretty good.
