SOS,
My break lights stopped working. The left right and center one. I checked the bulbs and they are ok. I looked for the fuse and see only one 15 amp blade fuse under the hood. Is there another fuse im missing here? All other lights work including the tail lights.

Can anyone help me with this?
Thanx
