If all the stop lights don't come on the fuse is my first suspect. If the fuse is good then the brake light switch is suspect. If the two lower brake lights work but not the third, high mounted brake light, the brake light switch is suspect again. But if only the third, high mounted brake light works then the turn signal switch is suspect. The third, high mounted brake light is wired directly from the brake light switch to the third brake light. The two lower brake lights are wired from the brake light switch, through the turn signal switch, then to the lower brake lights. Jim
