Bought '05 Sequoia SR5 2wd,3mths ago,213k mls.
2wks ago cruise control stopped working(replacing switch on column didnt fix),last week SRS airbag light on dash,yesterday drove fine, today at startup VSC Off/ VSC Trac dash lights and brake light on.
My obd2 scan pulls codes-
C1360(master pressure sensor)
B1801(open D Squib circuit)

Because of suddeness of today's dash lights and loss of CC 2wks ago wondering actually all related to bad clock spring?

VSC is a sympathetic puker, when it sees other lights, it might turn on too, I'd eliminate the other systems first. I'd be looking at the clock spring, loose/corroded connectors around the steering column and under the driver seat, check the fuses, and the cruise fail/brake light on could be as simple as a burnt out brake bulb.

Decided to remove steering wheel and inspect/disconnect clock spring connections,all looks good there.My steering wheel controls for radio all work as normal,replaced brake switch still no cruise control.
VSCTrac/Off/Brake dash lights still on with same 1360 code,went ahead and ordered 2x brake fluid pressure sensors(just the cheap Chinese knockoff =$30 vs $200 for 1 oem) to kinda troubleshoot on the cheap.
Will update after install and continue CC investigation.

What fivil said.
I've seen a lot of threads on here about when things start to act weird and very often its something simple like a ground or short problem.
The brake pedal switch, the wiring around the tow hitch etc.
Step 1 should be "check" existing stuff, replace parts should be last.

Update.....
With your suggestion I found and performed the vsc trac/off test procedure,it cleared the dash warning,it's been 4 days but only about 30 miles but so far still off.
My code reader is showing no dtc's.
The SRS airbag light still comes on/off and still no cruise control.
Would wheel speed sensor give code?
Still thinking clock spring cuz of cc and cruise.
Thanks for tips and help......

You'd have ABS and VSC lights if it was a wheel speed sensor.

SRS light could be many things, if your code reader isn't giving codes, you could try having the parts store scan it.

Have you checked for loose connectors? Continuity on the brake switch? Brake light bulbs?
