Check the brake switch. Check for voltage coming and going from that switch, check applicable fuse. This guide can help us fix it.

Note the diagram for brake switch. Orange wire carries voltage to brake switch for brake lites. The brake pedal arm activates the brake switch, that line with the arrow-head moves to the white wire terminal, the white wire carries voltage to turn signal switch. The brake lites are wired through the turn switch.
