I just discovered that my Brake lights don't work. Center brake light does work. I changed the fuse. Hazard and signal lights do work. When I apply the brake pedel, the center brake light does come on. Any ideas on where to check next?
Thanks - Steve

Your bottom brake lights circuit has to go thru the turn signal and hazard switch multi function switch-have this component checked out

Your top center brake light has a different path it splits up before the turn signal/hazard switch then it powers the bottom
