Default Sedan brake Lights

I just bought A sedan and the Brake Lights do not work.

I checked the fuse and the fuse was ok.

all of the other lights work.

When i turn the Lights (headlights and Tail lights) the whole bottom of the tail light is illuminated red.

Which of the lights turns on when the brakes are depressed are they the top half of the tailights next to the turn signals, or is part of the bottom bar suposed to light up brighter when the brakes are depressed?

i am confused to which lights are the brake lights

does your third brake light work? if it doesn't, it might be your brake switch.

No the third light is not working either. I checked that after I read your post. where would the brake switch be located. is that usualy just a plunger type thing underneath the brake pedal?

Ok so I ordered a new brake light switch yesterday. Got it this morning and replaced the old one.
Still no brake lights.
So my next step would probably have to be to check the wiring?
