1997 F-250. Where is brake light switch?

Okay, before I go out in the cold to troubleshoot this, could anybody point me to the right area? Would this be under the dash by the brake pedal? There are a few wires that connect to the master cylinder, but aren't they just for the brake fluid float?
Symptoms: I usually don't have brake lights, but occasionally they do come on. Also, if driving with the cruise control on, stepping on the brakes will not release the cruise control, it just wants to continue to accelerate. (That can be a little unnerving!)
BTW, this truck is the wheels with 7 lug nuts, so it's the light duty F-250 or I guess I should say the heavy F-150. TIA.
