they are clearly marked on all makes, the panel should be under the dash on the drivers side, and the fuse will be maked as to what amps it should be to,.
Check the brake lights, if they don't work the system will not come out of part. if the brake lights are not working check the brake light switch connector, the wire breaks inside the connector and although the switch is connected there is not any actual electrical connection just plastic insulator over broken wires. The dealer sells repair connectors.

this does not sound like a fuse problem. seems like a wiring issue. You probably have wires shorted together, and/or shorts to ground somewhere.
Brake switch is a good place to start, make sure it's working fine. To find the wiring issue you will need electrical diagrams, so get yourself a repair manual for a 1998 Explorer.
Look at connectors, see if you can find components or connections where all the brake light and tail lights connect to together. Using a multi meter you should be able to pin point the issue if u follow the wiring from the battery to the lights using the diagrams and checking connectors.
