Hello, my break lights are not working, I have changed the bulbs, and checked the fuses, my third light is functioning so I know it's not the brake lamp switch. It's just the rear breaks on either side that are not functioning.

That's usually a bad turn signal switch.

After looking at the wiring diagram I see this one doesn't go through the turn signal switch.

You need to use a test light to find out where you are losing that signal. They are all fed on the same orange wire so there has to be something wrong with the wiring somewhere.
