So I have checked the fuses, checked all the wires with voltage meter and they are all working. I had a friend who is a mechanic test the wires and he told me since the wires are all getting power I need to replace the whole taillight assembly. If it is on the brake lights that are bad can I just replace the sockets that the bulb goes into?

As long as you have good voltage and ground for the lamp, you can replace electrical connector.
I wouldn't think electrical connectors on both side would go out at the same time. I think something else is going on. Remember you got to have voltage and ground for the circuit to work. Do your tail lamps and turn signals work ok? They use the same ground as the brake lamp.

Ok so I checked the electrical where it plugs into the board on the taillight assembly. I have power when I press the brake pedal. I have turn signals and hazard lights. The left brake light went out and then within a mile the other one went out. They did go out at the exact same moment just very close together

W/o being able to look at it, I don't know what else to tell you? IF circuit board is faulty, I don't know what else, except replace lamp assembly?
Just for testing, you could try using separate voltage wires, jumper wires off battery voltage. Use separate jumper wires from one side to the other, so one side can't kill the other side. See if brake lamps will stay on. You don't have to use brake pedal. With the jumper, you might use an inline fuse, just in case.
If the stop lamps come on and stay on, I don't think it is the lamp assembly. I've been racking my brain trying to figure something w/o being able to look at vehicle. I'm about at the end of my rope. Lol

Check bulbs first you shouldn't have to remove wires. See pic arrows point to brake/turn signal wires then check to see if you have a bad brake switch if turn signals work

Electrical problem
2002 Chrysler Town and Country V8 All Wheel Drive Automatic
I have no brake or tail lights on either side, but both turn signals work. I've checked the bulbs, they are alright but cannot find where the fuses are for the brake lights. Can you help me?

Brake lights do not work. The fuse is still good. I recently had the handle on the rear liftgate replaced. Is it possible that something was disconnected and not reconnected?

Check for power and earth at the light plug, if you have both you will have a faulty globe.

Brakes problem
2002 Chrysler Town and Country 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic
Today I was driving and was flagged by another driver to tell me that my brake lights don't work. The middle one, on the hatch lights up, but the side ones don't. Checked bulbs and connections. All other lights work, tail lights and blinkers. We've looked and can't figure out what could be causing this.

Suspect faulty brake light swich. The two rear brake lights are ran through the brake switch (located at upper brake pedal arm) and the high mount brake light is ran through a relay so it is not effected if the brake switch fails.

Hello, I'm Danny.
Are you asking if you can separate a dual filament bulb shared circuit into a separate brake and taillight system? Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.

So is.
In my vehicle the brake light bulb is the same as the turn light.
Attached referential image (original)
I want to separate the lights so that the signal is turned separately. Attached image called invention.
Excuse my drawings, I did the best I did.
Greetings and thanks.

Hello again.
So just to be on the same page you are just trying to flip the positions of the brake and taillight positions on the filaments? Let me know.
