shot fuse usually shot fuse usually 1998-2002 Mercedes 230 SLKs had a factory recall on the brake lights in ~2005. The upper brake bulb appears to be burnt out, but it is really the plastic in the light assembly heating up and warping so that the electrical contact of the bulb is lost. The entire light assembly must be replaced. Mercedes re-imbursed the previous bills for three replaced tail light assemblies on my 1999 230 SLK.

The BOO (Brake On/Off) Switch may need to be replaced. If it is bad, it would cause the brake lights to NOT illuminate when the brake pedal is applied.

Check your brake lights and see if they are working. Ford has it so if your brake lights are out you can not shift out of park.

Your brake lights on your 2002 Acura RSX arent working but your tail lights are?

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.

If the fuses and bulbs are okay I would blame the signal switch assembly. They call it a multi-function switch these days.
