Brake lights won't come on. Tail lights come on all turn signals work hazards work. I am assuming fuses are good cause all the other lights work.

check brake light switch and t/s switch may not be sending power to brakes.

Changed out the brake switch that didn't do it. What does it take to change out the ts switch?

you have to pull the steering wheel and need a special tool to get to t/s switch. but check it first. check white wire to see if power is going in and dk/grn and yellow to see if it's going out if it does it's not the t/s switch then check dk/rn and yellow wires at rear to see if power is going there. if it is then check blk wire for ground it could also be a bad socket
