I've replaced fuses, bulbs,and replaced the brake switch onside of the brake padel. My blinkers,flashers,3rd brake light,and my running lights all work.

That's pointing to a bad combination switch in the steering column. The 2 lowew brake lights pass through it so the turn signal switch can cancel the brake lights for turn signals.
