Pilot Cruise Control Failure

My 2008 Honda Pilot with a gasoline engine has a cruise control problem. It won't engage. I checked fuses, but found nothing. There's also an error stored. Could a bad cable or plug be the cause?

A 2008 Honda Pilot's cruise control system failed to engage, despite the fuses being checked. An error code was stored, suggesting a potential issue. A faulty brake light switch was identified as a possible cause, and after inspection at a local shop, it was confirmed to be the problem. The defective switch was replaced, resolving the cruise control issue.

I had a similar issue with my Pilot. Did you check the brake light switch? A faulty switch can stop the cruise control from working.

Thanks, I didn't think of that. Where's the brake light switch located, and how hard is it to test?

The switch is usually near the brake pedal. It's not too hard to reach, but testing it can be tricky without the right tools. Since you have an error stored, and based on my experience, I'd suggest taking it to a trusted shop. Don't want to make things worse.

I took it to a local shop, and it was a defective pedal switch, just like you said. The repair cost 95€. Thanks for the help!
