For starters it is spelled "Brake" light...LOL . Sounbds like you may have a brake light switch that has gone out. In yor owners manual does it show more than one fuse for the brake lights? Most vehicles with a thrid/highmount brake light split the brake light power to either the left and third brake light and the right brake light or vice versa, or posibble 3rd brake light on its own fuse. I would check if all of the brake light including the 3rd brake light dont work. If no lights work at all it leans toward the switch which controls all or them to activate hence the brake light switch. It should be mounted on your brake peal arm or to the main base. The pedal lever activate the switch when you depress the brake pedal.
I don't believe there is a separate fuse for the high-mount brake light. Never was on older cars, that brake light is just spliced into the rear brake lights. Have you checked the bulb?
Bulbs are just like a fuse to for they blow out like a fuse. You have a brake light switch mounted near the brake pedal. Check that switch out with a OHM meter. Just unplug the switch and feed the Ohm meters contacts into the switch. Then push the brake pedal down to see if it completes the circuit. If a OL reading is showing at all times the switch is bad and needs to be replaced
Check your fuse box for a blown fuse first.1 fuse controls power windows and locks, not 100% that it controls the brake light problem. I believe it is fuse 14, check your manual for sure. If you dont have your manual shine a flashlight on your fuses and you sometimes can tell if they are blown.
Brake lights
there is an actuator above your pedal that activates when you press the brakes. I have had these go out on one of my cars, difficult to replace but cheap.
If none of this works then you will have to go to the dealer because they wont tell you what the codes mean.
If you have the owners manual for this car look in the index for fuses. This will give you specific location of which fuse protects the brake light. Fuse block is typically located under the drivers side dash, near the floor. Have you changed the bulbs?
hey you can get a refund of what you paid to get the brake light switch replace from lad rover just found out that that switch is a recall and they do free repair or pay you for getting it replaced call ur dealer
