Default Brake lights don't work on 92 CX...help

I have a 1992 Civic CX and my brake lights do not light up - including the LED. My tailights however, do work. I checked the bulbs, the STOP/HORN fuse under the hood, and the brake light switch. All are fine. I bought the car this way hoping this was an easy fix, but I'm stumped. Anyone have any other ideas?

This has happened to me in different situations. Go and check all your fuses and even under hood, if that doesnt work I would agree with the grounds

Is there a particular ground I should check? The reason I ask is, all other electrical systems in the car work fine. Thanks for the help guys.

I'm an idiot. I didn't see the really small bulbs for the brake lights. Pulled the one out on the drivers side and it was broken. Pulled the bulb out and all the brake lights turned on except for that one
