Tail lights and the third brake light work but the two brake lights do not. Which fuse controld the brake lights in a 2 door 2002 Ford Explorer?

According to the owner's manual for a 2002 Ford Explorer Sport (2 door) in the fuse panel at the end of the dash (visible with driver's door open) in location # 13 there is a 15 amp fuse for stoplamps, high mounted stoplamp, and speed control. With the third brakelight working , the fuse must be good. Have you checked the 2 bulbs for the taillights/lower brakelights to see if 1 of the filaments is broken in each of the 2 bulbs ?

The brake light switch is located near the top of the brake pedal. When the pedal is depressed the switch is activated and sends current to the brake lights. To access the switch, the under dash panel needs to be removed.

What is causing the brake lights not to work on 1997 Ford Explorer?

Check the fuse, bulbs/assy., and wiring another thing to check is where the bulbs connect. sometimes like my 94 one of the connectors in the bulb housing was broken. also there is a brake light sensor on the brake petal that is turned on when you depress the brake. usually near the top of the brake petal

How do you get brake light and third light working on a ford explorer?

Depending on the year, there may be one fuse for all three brake lights, or two fuses, one for the highmount brake light and one fuse for the two lower brake lights/tail lights. So, if all three brake lights are out, it could be just one fuse or perhaps the brake light switch which is on the brake pedal metal arm assembly.
