Brake light fuse?

I've got an '04 Dakota V8 Sport, and while pulling a trailer, I lost all signals, hazards, and brake lights. The fuses are all good in the cab, and I tried a new flasher, but it made no difference. I can hear the flasher click once when I flip the signal or hazards on, but it only clicks once and nothing lights up. Everything else electronic seems fine. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I looked at both fuse boxes, there is nothing labeled stop lights or brake lights. The brake lights are out, bulbs are good, but can't find fuse.

Brake light switch also is part of the ABS system
so you should start checking fuses and also check the switch located at the brake padel
good luck
let me know
