Most vehicle rear lamps have TWO light filiments in ONE bulb. One filiment is for the rear tail/parking light function, and the other [usually a larger and brighter burning filiment] is for the brake light function. Therefore, when the headlights are on, the "tail light" filiment should be on. Whether the headlights are on or off, the brake light filiment should come on when the brake pedal is depressed. If this is not happening, suggests one of several possible causes: * The brake light circuit has developed a short or overload which caused the fuse to "blow," * The brake light switch is so far out of adjustment that it cannot function, * A wire has become disconnected [cut, broken, unplugged], * The brake light circuit ground has become disconnected or badly corroded, * The brake light switch is defective.
on some cars the tail lights and brake lights are totally different bulbs gain access to the bulbs and have someone push the brakes so that you can determine which bulbs are the brake lights and replace the tail lights
replace brake light switch on brake pedal if it hasn't been done try that
bad fuse,bad switch or bulb montiner
AnswerThe bulbs for the brake lights are usually separate from the normal tail light bulbs. Check and replace the brake bulbs first, and if they are still not working examine the fuses, switch and wiring.

you do not adjust the brake lights check the bulbs or check switch top of brake pedal.
The brake lights and tail lights are separate wiring systems. Even some of the bulbs may have two separate bulbs in the same glass housing. If the bulbs are in fact working, then the next step would be to test the brake switch under the dash. When you depress the brake pedal the switch is pushed creating a connection to turn on the brake lights.
