Brake lights do not work. Fuses and bulbs have been replaced.

Welcome to the forum, did you check the brake switch, it's activated by the brake pedal arm? Red wire to the switch is hot all the time. Yellow wire is hot when you step on the brake and the switch is activated. You can use a testlite to check for voltage on the circuits.
