    You only change a fuse if it blows Change a bulb and test it,to see if it is burnt out.

SOURCE: brake lights not working, central

if both fuse and bulbs are good after that there is a push switch on the brake pedal itself some times these stick and or fail to work at all and need replacing quite a simple operation take wires off replace switch and replace wires if you touch the two wires together the lights should come on do this before buying new switch

SOURCE: Brake lights quit working.

if all fuses and bulbs are ok get to the brake switch and see ifits stiff or stuck, if it just has two wires on it you could join themtogether to see if the brake lights come on though obviuosly dont leave them joined.Good luck davelee

Check in your vehicle fuse box for the side lights fuse if is blown. Most of the vehicles separate the lights with fuses to work.

99 grand caravan- one brake light works, the other doesnt. checked fuses, checked bulb, both are fine.

Get a test light and check for power. If you got power check the ground, and the contacts, if not follow the hot wire back to the brake switch to locate the short.

Driver side brake light doesnt work but other brake light does changed bulbs still does not work

Make sure the fuses are good.There is a fuse for left and right brake lights.The fuse blocks are under the hood and there`s also one under the drivers side rear seat.If the fuses are good then remove the rear lamp assembly and check the bulb.I believe there are 2 screws and then just pull lamp assembly out.Hope this helps.Good luck.

Brake lights not working

Not even the third eye? then the fuse is blown or all the bulbs are out or the brake light switch on the break pedal is bad wire off or broken( it breaks right off the plug then crosses then blows the fuse as the loose broken wire hits the brake pedel arm. Test the break pedal switch first if the third eye doesesnt work either. no power with a test light the fuse is blown or the wire broke ( the wire goes straight to the switch from the fuse and doesnt go anywhere elese. the other wire if hot should light the lights. Most of these wont come out of park without this working as the wire also turns on the park release but some Fords the park release sticks released and Ford made em that way as they didnt like the brake to get out of park law. If the brake lights dont work maybe you ought not be able to get out of park anyway till its fixed. the switch is hot on both wires with the switch pused down and the lights dont still work go after the third eye first if the bulbs are bad change em before you do the rest of the work. on cars with yellow turn signals the brake lights all work on the same wire but red only use three wires, but you didnt say the turn signales didnt work if they work and they are red you r on the way to the turn signal switch as the brake switch powers the turn switch with power then it splites it fot the two lights and adifferent switch circuit for the front hooks them all together for hazard. yellow turns in the back or even separt bulbs can mean blown bulbs ther too its old enought for all the bulbs to fail and the runs still work.

Cant find the fuse for my brake lights on my 2002 ford explorer

if the third brake light works you will probably need a brake on off switch. the fuse panels on that truck are under the dash near the steering column and under the hood in the power distribution box. both of these panels are identified in the owners manuel.
