Check the bulbs. Theoretically, if all of the other lights work, then the bulbs are bad. Less likely, but slightly possible, is a problem with the actual wiring for the running/parking lights.
You mention the brake lights, are those not turning on? Check the brake light switch on the brake pedal. Use a piece of wire to jumper the two connectors and see if the brake lights illuminate. If they do, replace the switch. If not, again, you most likely have a wiring issue.
