I received the brake sensor I ordered in response to my intermittent cruise control, similar issue to what
@mattjones posted.
@Doubeleive then posted about how the switch allows a little movement, so I tried a little kick-tap near the top of the brake pedal arm to re-seat the switch. Sure enough, the little kicks make the cruise control work again. I imagine I will end up installing the new switch later though, since it was cheap enough, and kicking things to make them work isn't a good long-term solution.
Thanks again for everyone's contributions on this forum.
