Try turning on your emergency flashers. If the front lights are flashing and the back ones aren't, then I'd be looking for bad bulbs, sockets, grounds, wires........... anything that might be stopping the electricity from making its rounds. If the back lights are flashing then the problem will probably be with the brake light switch which will be near the brake pedal. Sometimes a wire can get pulled off this switch.

How to replace brake lights bulbs. When step on the brake, my window light comes on but the other lights does not come on. The park lights and signal light works, except the brakes lights don't work....

I think your break light bulb is damage and not able to work properly so you need to change it so you can give your vehicle to mechanic to repair break light bulb.

2004 chrysler sebring. my break lights don't come on when i hit the break pedal.

There is a brake light switch on the pedal inside the cabin of the car, if this switch is bad your lights will not work, also I'm fairly confident that the Sebring has a seperate fuse for the brake lights, check your fuse panels also

Break lights don't work

Check the fuse for your break lights. It's very unlikely that they both went out at the same time. Most likely the fuse. You can locate the exact one by looking at the owners manual.

I have a 1988 c1500 chevy truck and my break lights stop working and notice the stop light fuse was missing just bought truck back from previous owner but when I replace the fuse the break light stays on...

The brake light switch on these trucks was a poor design. Its mounted on the brake pedal. Look under there and bend the bracket that holds the brake light switch slightly and things will start working again. When these were new we used to just grab the brake pedal and pull it toward the drivers seat really hard and let go. This fixed your problem 99% of the time.

Speedometer and Odometer not working , Break Light and Abs light on

Most likely you have a check engine light on also. And if you have codes pulled it will be 0500, speed sensor. Replace the one on the rear axle and all should be good. Oh and don,t forget to have code cleared.
