+  <li>cruse control did not work</li>
+  <li>brake lights did not work</li>

+The common denominator is the brake switch, which we investigated.

+Some splicing work for the brake light in the roof of the trunk was found to be shorting out.
+After fixing this problem, the car seems to work fine.
+However cruse control is still broken.

+In the process of fixing this problem David reset the car computer by disconnecting the battery for several seconds.
+We also discovered that the rear passenger-side brake light was broken, which could be coincidental.
+The brake light was replaced the next day, working fine.
