You may need to check your brake light switch. It is a small switch located on top of your brake peddle (up on the arm of the peddle). This switch allows the brake lights to come on whenever you push the peddle.

It's the brake switch. It tells your break lights to come on.
1995 Subaru Impreza tail lights not brake lights always on even with running light switch off and headlights turn on normally Any ideas?
There should be a switch on top of your steering column that turns on/off the "Parking Lights". Check to see if that is your problem. The switch should show red on the front of it if the lights are on.
My 2003 caravan has tail lights and turn signals but the brake lights don't work we've replaced the fuse and brake light switch don't know what else it could be Any ideas would be helpful?
Behind steering wheel is a set of contacts that disable the brake lights when a turn signal is on, they may be stuck in the off brake light position. Try pushing the turnsignal arm to its limit and then wiggle it....careful you do not brake it off. Also check for brake light switch adjustment.
Brake lights on your 1999 Trans Am don't work but center light does fuses all good and brake light switch new any ideas?
Either all brake light bulbs are bad, and yes it is common for all the bulbs to fail with in a day or two. Or the signal light switch has an internal problem.
I have 2000 Jeep Wrangler with No Brake lights. Replaced Fuse and both brake light bulbs. Still no brake lights. Tail lights Blinkers and Back up lights work. Any Ideas Thank you very much.?
Although there could be other causes, I suspect that the problem is related to the brake light electrical circuit since you replaced the lamps and fuse [assuming they were all good]. The most common cause of symptoms that you describe suggest that the brake light switch may be involved, either not adjusted properly, or defective. Though not familiar with your vehicle, MOST brake light switches are mounted on or near the steering column, and above the brake pedal arm, in contact with and depressing the switch's plunger [thus holding the switch OPEN], and when the pedal is depressed, allows the switch plunger to extend, closing the switch, allowing electrical current to the circuit and thus the brake lights. This type of switch is genrally mounted by screwing a threaded nipple on the switch into a threaded hole in a mounting bracket. This switch is adjusted by screwing the switch further out or in. A small percentage of vehicles use a hydraulic type switch mounted into a hole on the brake master cylinder on the firewall in the engine compartment. To my knowledge, these switches are not adjustable. Good luck.
