2001 Toyota Sienna cruise control fails when headlights come on

My 2001 Toyota Sienna's cruise control stops working when the headlights come on. The day lights do not affect the problem. The cruise lights on the dash stay on the whole time but the cruise stops and will not engage until the headlights are off.
If I turn the headlights all the way on and it is light outside, everything works but when it gets darker and the headlights come on, the cruise stops working. If I turn the light switch so that the headlights are always on the cruise will not engage. If it is dark and I turn the headlights off, it works. It only fails if the headlights(not day lights) are on.

    My 1998 Mazda 626 is doing the same thing. I have also noticed that during daylight driving, stepping on the brake pedal causes the in-dash aftermarket stereo display to dim. My car doesn't have a direct alternator display, only an idiot light, which so far hasn't come on.

    I have the exact same problem/conditions on my 2000 Sienna LXE with the cruise control. It just started recently and I have not figured out the problem yet. If anyone has a solution, it would be great to hear about it.

You may have a faulty brake lamp switch at the brake pedal. If the brake lights come on (via a bad switch), the cruise will cut off.

The problem is in the sunvisor light. You will have to take the light assembly off and you will find wires have become disconnected.

Transmission speed sensor

You could have a faulty speedometer/odometer combination meter causing a false Vehicle Speed Sensor error.
My 1998 Sienna had the following symptoms:
- Speedometer and odometer failed intermittently
- The check engine light would come on and I would get a p0500 code in the OBDII.
- The cruise control would stop working at the same time the speedometer failed.
There is a speed sensor in each one of the tires and they feed the speed information to the ABS ECU. From the ABS ECU the speed signal goes to the speedometer/odometer combination meter, and from there it goes to the Engine Control Module and to the Cruise Control ECU. I could see a signal coming into the speedometer/odometer, but no signal going out. Replacing the speedometer/odometer combination meter fixed the problem.
