Default Where is the 'right brake light sensor'?

For some reason, my rear right brake lights wont come on. Sometimes the rear center brake like wont come on either. And other times the right back up light wont come on. I've studied the schematics and it looks like the rear right brake light sensor is probably bad. Anyone know where it is?

thanks a ton.

are you sure its not the bulbs? the switch that sets off the brake lights is on your brake pedal bracket, but it wouldnt make sense for that to stop working only on one side. check the bulbs.

Definately not they're bulbs. I creplaced them and they're good. As is all fuses related to the tail lights.

It is locate next to the light socket in the trunk. It is a 2"x2" box with a wire plug at the end.

I have the same problem, new lights, good fuse, even checked the switch only thing I can think of is the sensor.

There should be a connector by the sensor, connects fuse to sensor and sensor to high center light
