I do believe replacing the brake switch will solves the issue causing those codes.
Read this linked topic which had the same codes as you have and replacing the brake switch solved the issue causing the codes, the brake switch is relatively cheap and installing it only takes a few minutes and is the most common failure that would throw those codes, well worth trying before trying to replace other more expensive parts.

Thanks for the reply! I did read that thread, and I totally get that this is an inexpensive fix, but is there any chance that a faulty brake switch is causing the pedal to creep to the floor at a stop light?
