Parking brake switch is easiest to eliminate and see if it affects your issues.
Thanks, I hadn't heard of electronics contact cleaner. Will look into that.
On one video I saw, they said that if your parking brake light goes on, that means your parking brake is not the issue, but I am not sure that is right. That supposes the microswitch there is dependent on the parking brake light working, and I don't see how that relates, if it all. Do you think that is it or do I have to dig deeper than just looking at the parking brake/parking brake light relationship?
