there is a few

i think the main ones are off the negative batt terminal, one goes into the subframe just under the battery/coolant reservoir and another goes into the block just under the exhaust manifold.

Usually caused by a single element (indicator 21w) globe being fitted where a dual element (21w/5w) globe sould be.

Have you actually 'replaced' the brake light globes? You need the 2in1 type as stated above 21w/5w Stop/Tail globes.

you Will find your problem here.

Your cruise wont work b'cos your parker voltage is getting fed back through the brake light wires.
Hence thinks your brakes are on.
