The problem is with the brake light switch which is located underneath the dashboard attahched to the pedal support bracket. It is either broken or needs adjusting so that the plunger is fully depressed when the pedal is in it's normal resting position.

That being said, if you replaced the bulbs recently and afterwards is when you noticed the problem check the bulb numbers and make sure that they are 1157's because even though they might look identical there are a fe different types of bulbs, some of which can, in this situation, touch both relay contacts causing your problem.
IT'S PROBABLY JUST A PROBLEM WITH THE PRINTED CIRCUIT BEHIND THE DASH.
Fuse
my back brake lights don't work, but the brake light on the back door does what could be wrong
whats wrong with them??
=I don't know about the brake lights. I know that most cars, when you turn it off and get out, the head lights and main backlights stays on for a while but then goes off. The brake lights? Maybe it's the way that car is or something is wrong with the brake or you have it on wrong.=
Maybe it is not connected properly or you bought the wrong type of bulb.
wrong bulbs or bad earth
Check the brake switch at the pedal.
Normally this is an indication of a defective brake light switch.
Blown fuse
It is important to pay attention to the warning lights on the dashboard. When the ABS and brake lights flask that means there is something wrong with the brake system.
