Depressing the brake does not cancel the cruise control

What is your question?

Just purchased a dodge diesel 3500 with only 40k miles on it.. all seems fine with it except, when cruise control is on and you hit the brake the cruise control doesn't cancel so while the brake causes the vehicle to slow, the cruise is actually accelerating so it surges ahead crazy when you let up on the brake. What could be faulty to cause the cruise not to disengage when the brake is pressed?

Check the stoplight switch on brake pedal, has 2 circuits. One will be closed w/pedal released, and one will be open w/ pedal released. Should reverse w/ pedal pushed. If both are closed w/ pedal pushed, switch is bad, Replace. If it is good, test servo.
