My brake lights do not work when brake pedal is pressed. I have checked bulbs,fuses,brake pedal switch, ground, wiring. The third brake light at the spoiler works fine. Tail lights,signal lights,side lights ,head lights and dash lights all work fine. Running lights do not work but I found the the 55 watt bulbs blown.

The high mount lights working means this has nothing to do with the fuses or stop light switch. Somewhere power is not getting past to the bulbs.

Power supply is split at the Stop and Taillight sensor and I believe that is what you should be looking at.
