Technical Cruise control fault?

[Coopersale]

Hi, I have a new to me 2010 2.3 Ducato 130 and the cruise has stopped working,
I've done about a 1000 miles since picking it up it was intermittent at first but has now stopped altogether. Are there any known problems with these?
I will check both the clutch and brake switches today but at first it seemed to work with a wiggle of the stalk but now even that's stopped.

Two things can primarily screw up the cruise control, the switch that determines when the brake is applied (it automatically cuts cruise as soon as the brake is touched) and on some vehicles a gear lever position switch. I'd look at those first.

I got a 2004 Ducato and mine was intermittent. Someone suggested clutch switch which turned out to be my issue. Pedal was just not returning to stop.

Thanks, I've had the clutch switch out and it works fine when checked with a multi tester.
The brake lights work as they should so that rules those 2 out.
I'll find a garage that can read faults in case something else is causing it.

Search on here for cruise control generally.
You can reset the adjustment of the clutch and brake switches by pulling the actuating plunger out.
