Hi. Its quite easy and i have a guide that will help you achieve your goal.

Step1 Determine how the bulb is accessed: On some models the lens (the red or white plastic part over the light) must be unscrewed from the outside, and on others the bulb is accessible only from inside the trunk. If there are no screws on the lens, you can assume that the bulb must be replaced from inside. Usually there will be a plastic cover that must be removed in order to access the bulb. There may be tabs, screws or small knobs that hold this plastic cover in place. Step2 How difficult is changing brake light on 2004 Envo - replacelight_2s.jpg Unscrew the lens on the outside, or take off the plastic cover from inside the trunk, to reveal the bulb. Step3 How difficult is changing brake light on 2004 Envo - replacelight_3s.jpg/images/replacelight_3s.jpg" alt="replacelight_3s.jpg" class="h_mi" /> Unscrew the bulb. You'll have to push in and turn at the same time. Step4 Take the bulb with you to the auto supply store to help you find an exact duplicate. Step5 replacelight_5s.jpg Clean the connection with a wire brush and/or wipe it clean with a rag if there's any corrosion. Step6 How difficult is changing brake light on 2004 Envo - replacelight_6s.jpg replacelight_6s.jpg
Screw the new bulb into the empty socket. Again, you'll have to push in and turn simultaneously. Line up the tiny raised bumps on the base of the bulb in order to screw it in. Step7 Replace the lens or the plastic cover.

Please rate and god bless.

You can check fuse #34 a 15amp fuse located in the rear fuse block, under the left side of the second row seat. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: no brake lights

I would check fuses and see if any pertain to braking system. There is a switch above the brake pedal that could be loose, but also maybe broken. Mike. Rate 100% please.

SOURCE: I changed the brakes on

Do you have a good brake pedal, does it hold when pushed? Is the ABS light on too?
There may be air in the brake lines, there may be dirt in the lines. Have you tried bleeding the system?

Where is the brake lightfuse located at on my 2004 envoy xl

There is only one fuse for the brake light, so if the passenger side is working, the fuse is OK. You most likely have a bad bulb, bad bulb socket or a wire issue. The circuit board that all of the rear light are mounted to also has had problems in the past.
BTW - the fuses for the rear light are under the rear seat.
