Fuse for the "Third" Brake Light

Although I have no experience with the Chevy Tahoe, the systems are similar for almost all vehicles.

The third brake light is tied into the wiring for the other brake lights and is protected by the SAME fuse they are.

Thus, there is no separate fuse for the third brake light.

Therefore, IF your other brake lights are working, then a failure of the third brake light to activate IS NOT caused by a fuse, but instead an "open circuit" condition in the "dedicated" third brakelight wiring [from where its wire "splits" off of the wiring harness to the other brake lights].

This is usually caused by a connector which has become disconnected, or a cut or broken wire.

What would cause the third brake light on a 2003 Chevy Tahoe not to work when all other lights work and how would you replace?

I have same year Tahoe and same problem. Check fuses first to make sure it isn't a fuse. The third brake light assembly can be removed by opening the back door and unscrewing the screws. Then unplug the connector. A new unit is about $175.00 and the whole unit must be replacee as it is LED light not bulbs.
