Sounds to me as though you you might have a piece of crud stuck in one of the pressure switches on the brake master cylinder. To troubleshoot, remove the instrument cluster cover, and pull the connectors off of the big round switches in the side of the master cylinder. First pull one, then look, then put it back, and try the other if needed. Pretty simple to find, and not hard to fix, either. A replacement should be readily available from any of the list vendors - VW used the same style switches FOREVER!.
