What is wrong when your brake lights doesnt turn on when you hit the brakes for your prelude?

First check and replace "dead" bulbs in the tailight housing. If they are all good and still no lights then there is usually some sort of pressure switch the barke pedal pushes on or is released from when pressure is applied to the pedal. This may need to be replaced.
