When I brake, the lights don't come on. Already replace the bulbs and the fuse is fine.

Hi:
There is a brake light switch on the brake pedal. Check it to make sure it's working correctly. Also, if the switch is opening and closing with brake usage, check for power to the switch and out to the brakes.

Let me know what you find.
