if everthing else works-turn signals, flashers and running lights,then the problem is probably the stop light switch.its hard to get to but i did it with a long skinny screwdriver and flashlights.go buy it for 10 bucks and study it.under the dash pop the lock washer off with a screwdriver.and pull the switch out carefully then unhook the wire harness,you have to have patience.pull the old one out and replace with the new one the same way.set the lockwasher in place and push it back on with your thumb and screwdriver./the switch is located at the top of the brake pedal .if you can touch it then you should be able to remove it.

Check the brake light switch. It should be mounted on the upper part of the brake pedal or the brake pedal frame. If the brake lights go off when you unplug it you have a stuck or shorted switch.
