Default Brake lights don't work.

So my brake lights don't work when I press the brake, but work when I arm my alarm system. So I know it's not the bulbs, and I checked the fuse behind the plastic piece of the dash (driver side) and the "brake Fuse" was good. So there must be another fuse/relay/switch. Can anyone please direct me to this? All the old posts have to do with guys brake lights staying "on". Mine won't even go on. Where is this "switch" that may be broken? And anyone have a part number for the piece?

Good call there Lenny. I guess it could be the bulbs then...lol. Boy will I feel dumb if that's the case. THANK YOU... I just think it's weird that both of them went out at the same exact time. I feel like it might be more...I'll keep you updated. Thanks again

Does your cruse control work? If not, its the Brake switch (by the pedel. Its a common failure. Its like a $35 part and pretty easy to intall.

Oh yeah, to verify its a bad switch usually you can kick the pedel a bunch of times and it'll work for a little bit.
