The first thing you should ck is your ignition. The vehicle may need to be re-keyed. The ignition switch could also be broken. This tends to occur especially by using generic copies of the key. Sometime they are not made to the precise specification.

If this has happened then please check the wiring on the brake light switch which is located on the brake pedal. You will probably find a broken wire.

I haven't done it (yet), but it should be pretty simple - there are about 6-8 Phillips screws to remove the console and access the shifter - from there you should be able to find the receptacles and change the bulbs.
