Hi:
I will assume the bulbs are good. Yes, when the brakes are off, the switch should be pushed in (open circuit) When you push the brakes, the switch is released closing the circuit and allowing power to travel to the lights.
Are you getting power to the switch?
Let me know if this helps, and if you have any other questions.
Joe
