1995 gs 300 brakes light won't come on

I'm nearly at my wit's end. The car is a '95 GS300. The only brake light that works is the back dash light. So that rules out the brake light switch. I've checked bulbs, every fuse in the car, and the trunk hinge wiring harness that gives so much trouble on the LS.
None of the other brake lights work. The orange indicator on the instrument panel stays lit.

Everything was fine until a bulb blew out. I replaced the fuse.

Any assistance, ideas, or condolences greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I had the same prob w/ my 95 GS300. I also tried all the things u mentioned. My last thought was to follow the wiring from back to front (I'm an electrician). It ended up being a major slice thru the mass of wires that go thru the trunk into the passenger compartment on the passenger side. It looks like the wires must have rubbed up against a sharp weld between two body panels and broke that way. Anyway, mine broke in the channel underneath the doors between the back and front seats. 4 **** connectors and some heat shrink tubing and I was all set. Drove me crazy for a good two weekends.

Fluid is leaking on all four wheels. 2006 GS300

Check your brake fluid reservoir if you are low. Other than that, the only parts with fluid are the shocks.
