My turn signals, tail light and 4 ways all work. The brake light switch is brand new, no blown fuses or bulbs. Yet none of the 3 brake lights work.

The green and white is power in to your brake light and with the brake pedal pushed the green wire powers the brake lights. The 3rd brake light is wires from the brake light switch so something is wrong with the switch or power in and out.
