SOURCE: No brakelights or taillights

Yop may have a very common problem unique to that year car.
I have two definite fixes for you:
Open the trunk. Look at the wiring harness that is hooked onto the driver side arm that holds the trunk lid to the body. Untape the wiring harness from the edge of the trunk lid back towards the driver rear seat. You are most likely going to find a broken wire or two, prob a green with a red tracer. The repeated action of lifting/closing the trunklid seems to break the brake/tail power wires. If the wiring harness is perfect, no breaks, AND you have a rear spoiler, remove the trunk interior trim that faces the driver side 1/4 panel. Hidden behind a brace will be a small box. This is the brake lamp sensor. If it has failed, you may need to replace this box. Either fix should resolve your issue.

SOURCE: license's plate light stopped working even with new bulb.

It wouldn't be a fuse if that's the only light that's not working, I believe all of the parking lights are on the same fuse. It's most likely a bad ground or corrosion inside the socket where the bulb makes the electrical connection. So check the socket to make sure it has no corrosion, if it does, clean it up and apply some dielectric grease (available at any parts store) to prevent future corrosion, and check for a loose or broken ground wire.

SOURCE: 05 plate renault megane 2tr automatic. brake

Then the only thing left to check is the brake switch, which is usually located under the dash, linked up to the brake pedal itself. It's the true secret to the inner workings of the brake light. If that switch is defective, either the brake light won't come on at all, or they will stay on all the time. Either way, you either need to replace it, or maybe it just unhooked from the brake pedal and you need to fix it.

SOURCE: trouble locating fuse box in

a '54 astra??? not quite sure which model you are refering to, but in most vauxhalls the fusebox is located in the footwell of either the driverside or the passenger side. There is small hatch that opens if it is pulled.

But on some astras it is located behind the storage compartment to the right hand side of the steering column and the drivers door.

I have changed the bulbs in brake lights.They dont work but the brakelight in rear window does .I am not sure which fuse if any to change.I have a 2003 Kia Carens.

It is most likely a blown fuse. If you have the owner's manual, it will tell you where the box is located (usually in the engine compartment). If you do not have a manual, look for the fuse box/ relay center either under the dash or in the engine compartment. There will be a diagram on the inside cover telling which fuse is for the tail lights/ brake lights. Pull that fuse straight out of it's socket, and replace it with an appropriately rated fuse (from any auto parts store).

I don't have any tail lights brake lights, and turn signals. i dont know what fuse or relay to check or replace, because I dont have a owners manual to cross reference. Oh my vehicle is a 1997 ford...

CHECK ALL LIGHT BULBS IN THE BACK. PROBABLY HAVE A FEW BAD BULBS THAT ARE BURNT OUT COMPLETELY. CHECK LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS ALSO. CHECK FUSES TOO TO MAKE SURE THE TAIL LIGHT FUSE IS GOOD.

The problem is in the loom in the steering wheel, it requires removal of the airbag and a new wheel loom to be fitted. The loom costs about £15.00 I think.
