Both rear and top brakes lights don't work, I have checked and replaced the fuse and replaced the brake switch. Trailer lights work as well as all turn signals, 4 ways and tail lights.
THE PROBLEM IS IN THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH, REPLACE IT.
I have a 1996 Monte Carlo, while checking things out for pending inspection recently 29000 miles, no accidents, the brake lights stopped working, went on line. The first page that came up was the exact issue.
Turns out the problem is with the turn signal wiring at the steering column lever. I briefly and lightly massaged the harness between my fingers where exits the steering column going to the turn signal lever. Brake lights started working. This after, taking a lot apart of course.
Found bulbs worked for all other light functions, turn, fourway, parking AND the third brake light in the back window also worked. Just no tail end brake lights.
It's the wiring between the turn signal lever and steering column. Haven't taken the harness apart where it exits steering column to the lever yet (happened last night) to see what the deal is with the wires in the area.
