I've had the same problems. Did what you have done, before i checked the cruise brake pedal switch. After doing that (there was a sleight adjustment), cruise worked ok.
Cost nothing to look?

If l remember correctly, turn l think left? away from the pedal. Dosen't have to be much. Just enough so its not touching the pedal. When touching the pedal, it's like braking (when driving) cancels out the cruise control.
