Only thing I can think of is to make sure the clutch switch is pushed fully in because just a 0.1mm gap can fool the cruise into thinking the clutch pedal is pushed in

There is a switch on the brake pedal but if this is the cause your brake lights wouldn't work

Even dafter question, you have checked the fuse and does your horn work?
My horn and cc both failed and it was the horn fuse.

Stupid half facelift fuse box which I've not found complete docs for yet (it's not pre facelift as it's micro fuses, but it isn't fully post facelift as that fuse diagram is wrong too)
