Brake and back up lights will not work. Checked all fuses and good. Replaced all bulbs with 3157 and still does not work, what else could be wrong?

Hello,

It sounds like an issue with the brake light switch.
If the brake light switch is bad then none of the brake light will come on.

The brake light switch is located under the brake pedal. When you depress the brake pedal it presses the brake light switch and the brake lights illuminates.
Overtime the switch can wear off and stop working.

This vehicle is also equipped with a backup lamp switch. It can be affected along the brake light switch.

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
