I believe the fuse for the stoplamps on your vehicle is in the fuse box located under the rear seat on the drivers side. The seat cushion must be removed to access this box. To do that, pull up on the front of the cushion to release the front hooks, then pull the cushion up and out towards the front. The fuse box should be under.
The fuse for the stoplamps is fuse 19, circled in red. Check this with the diagram that should be in the fuse box.
If you want to replace the fuse, use a fuse with the same amp rating. Your car has a second fuse box under the hood, in the engine compartment between the windshield washer fluid and the power steering fluid on the passenger side. It should be a black box similar to the one under the seat. In this box, there are five spare fuses you can use, as well as a fuse puller making it easier to remove fuses. The spare fuses are fuses 48-52, and the fuse puller is located in slot 53.
Take a spare fuse from under the hood that matches the amp rating of the brake fuse you are removing, and insert the new fuse into the fuse box under the seat.
To replace the cushion, slide the rear of the cushion up under the seatback so it hooks unto the wire loops on the back frame, then push backwards and down until the spring locks on both sides lock. Make sure none of the seat belts gets twisted into the cushion.
Check to make sure all systems, including the brake lights, are working properly.
