Check the bulbs. I'm not sure on a 97, but there used to be a connector at the back that connected the wires from the front to the lights. At the back edge of the bed underneath. These can become corroded. Had any trailer lights added? Lost the ground wire underneath, caught it on something maybe? Since it is the tail and brake lights both, it has to be at the back end. Simplest solution is to stick a new bulb in just to make sure. You have probably already done this, but I mention it anyway.
