Default Cruise Control not working KV6

The cruise control on my petrol KV6 appears to have failed. Though I am an infrequent user, I do remember using it; I only bought the car last November.
Symptons are:
1 - main switch operated, green light comes on. (I'm assuming switch and fuse are ok).
2 - steering wheel switch (SET) operated - dashboard icon comes on, but speed (say 50mph) is NOT maintained. (I'm assuming switch works as icon now lit).
3 - as 2, but switch used for (+) mode, no increase in speed. (Same assumption as 2).
4 - leaving SET selected, with icon lit, but using accelerator to drive; if brake pedal is now used, icon goes off. (thus I am assuming brake pedal switch is ok). Note - I have added an led repeater for the brake lights, I can confirm brake lights and icon go off together.
5 - Vacuum pipe to throttle body; I have checked for cracks and disconnection, but NFF, though I have yet to go under car to check vacuum pump closely.

Any suggestions?
