Best Answer

Try the brake switch under the dashboard up at the top of the brake pedal

Or you might check the fuse or even possibly the wiring harness connection at the back of the vehicle. A lot of cars have a connector that connects the rear light wiring harness with the main harness. These connections are prone to corrosion. When they get too corroded the wires can break causing the lights not to work. The brake switch on the brake pedal is the least likely cause of this problem unless you have been working up under the dash.
