2004 Chevrolet Aveo Brake Lites Inop.

2004 Chevrolet Aveo Manual Transmission. Brake lites do not work (both). Have checked fuse and all 4 lite bulbs. You recommended, to another person with the same problem, to change the multi-function switch for the turn signals in the steering column. May I ask what does that have to do with the brake lites not working.
Thanks!

I have replaced several brake light switches in this particular car.The brake light switch is located under the dash on the brake peddle arm and is not expensive or hard to do .This seems to be the biggest problem with the brake lights:)

Your brake light problem is probably in the brake light switch on the peddle since all other lights work correctly. one other persons problem was the brake lights quit working when they turned the headlights on.

I have a 2001 neon the break lites do work could it be the body controll mod

Click on the link.
Can you read wiring diagrams? If your saying brake lites don't work, are all brake lites out, I'm talking about the high mount and lower brake lites, both? If both are out have to check fuse, not only check fuse, use a test light and check voltage on fuse circuit. The high mount brake lite and lower brake lites are wired differently.
I want to add, if I'm looking at correct wiring diagram, the bcm is not involved.

09 aveo- no brake lites

Check your fuse and bulbs first. If they dont help, it is probably the brake switch. It is above your brake pedal. When you hit the brake, the switch is activated, therfore, turning on your lights.

Ford E-150 brake lights

I don't know the model year, to look up wiring diagram? Do you have a high mount brake lite? Does it work? The highmount and lower brake lites are routed differently, the lower brake lites are usually routed through the multifunction switch, the highmount brake lite isn't wired that way. Did you check voltage at brake switch for brake lites, that is a fused circuit.
Usually the lower brake lites and turn use the same bulb filament, but, not at the same time.
