There are very few one liners for problems such as yours,however entertaining they may be-----get the car scanned!!---I know that ain't free!!

Follow the suggestion of poster #3 he has an uncanny positive ratio record of guesses to BS!!

My best oneliner: Probably the brake light switch.

It isn't expensive and if it works then you can drive to the shop to get the codes read...of course, by then, you wont need to drive to the shop.

Just saying...back to you dwarf planet.

I just had same symptoms. Mine was brake light switch. I bought 2 so I will have a spare in my car at all times now. It's an easy DIY repair.
