Remember the brake pedal switch actually has 2 circuits in it (definitely FL, presumably PF).
One circuit really only triggers the brake lights, the other informs the ECUs and they are ever so slightly set apart so that one changes just before the other as you apply the brakes.
You can check the operation with the relevant measuring blocks using VCDS, just can't recall which ones they are. (Used that to diagnose that mine was mis-adjusted and causing odd gearbox behaviour)
Edit: Engine measuring block 66, at least on FL. This is what I said nearly a year ago in another thread:

A VERY LIGHT touch on the pedal (engine off) would change it to 1010 but the slightest bit more and it went to 1011.
That sequence could be reversed by lifting off very carefully.
