Check the brake switch adjustment first. If it is ok it's probably your turn signal switch. The brake lights run through this switch and if the contacts in it are bad the brake lights will either not work at all or will work sometime.

Check out the brake light switch located on the brake peddle. Could be out of adjustment or burned out.

My headlights have quit working on my 1994 Chevy 1500 pickup. I replaced the headlight switch but they still don't work. The parking lights come on but not the headlights

Try checking both a; your fuses, and b; check your bulbs. You should have two fuse boxes, one under hood and one in or under the dash. Check those for bad, blown or weak fuses. And check your headlights bulbs for them being good and their connection. If this doesn't fix your problem, you may check out your highbeam switch.

2003 Chevy Silverado SS brake lights aren't working but top cab brake lights are. Bulbs in brake lights are working, and light up when headlights are turned on, but do not get brighter when brake pedal is...

Sounds like the turn signal flasher module has gone bad. It controls the brake lights and turn signals. It is located under the drivers side of the dash. If is a rectangular black box with a grey connector and 8 or so wires connected to it.
