Brake Light Problem

Ok ive replaced both bulbs, and i checked the fuses. But when i apply the brakes the bulbs do not light up.

Could it be the brake light switch?

Im sorta confused to as what the problem is. Never had to deal with something like this before.

I hate electrical problems.... bah

First and foremost, with all electrical problems, is to check all the ground and connections for continuity using a multimeter.

The brake switch that controls the brake lights is under the dash. The pedal rests on it when in the up position. Could be that the switch isn't releasing when you press the pedal.

I'll check my Helms when I get home

^^^I was going to suggest that as well...i had a issue 2 weeks ago where the pin that makes the lights turn off once the pedal is released was rotten...but yea, that could be his problem.

Did you replace your bulbs with same type? Brake lights have bulbs with 2 wires in bulb and the bulb has 3 connecting points. But first check if the new bulbs are working.
BTW, is the brake light indicator always on?
