Possible its your brake switch. Try pressing on the brake a little bit and seeing if your brake lights turn on.

I have to stompt the brake pedal hard to get the cruise control to release on 04 Excursion 6.0 psd

Check the switch at the top of the Brake Peddal arm, under the dash.. for being cocked or .. replace it. Also.. under the hood.. There is a Recall & TSB on the Cruise Control disconnect.. wireing & switch assembly located on the Brake Master Cylinder. You might call Ford... see if they will inspect you CC issue... due to the Recall ?

x2...or you can go to Fords web site...tyoe in your vin and see what is still out for a recall on your truck. These were a fire starter in our trucks. I'm getting to were I have to mash my steering wheel buttons harder/lot more. Might be getting close to replacing them, or shooting some wd-40 on em
