No brake lights help

[Blackpony]

Went to take the car in the shop and i got nothing out the rear. I've replaced the switch along with the bulbs which both were blown. I also checked all the fuses and still nothing. Any help would be great

Have the screws for the grounds came loose? I know that might not be the problem but it would be good to check... That's got me boggled... Makes me wonder what blew both bulbs??

Jesse, what screws for the grounds are you referring too? It did make me question why both were blown also. I looked at the switch again and noticed that i didn't have the plastic washers that the switch sits on. I dont thing that would be too big an issue but i'm gonna look into getting some. I also read on four eyed pride that the wire to the switch does tend to break so i guess im gonna have to get a meter out and check for power. I'm so pissed about this cause i'm ready to take my car in today and now i'm on hold till i get this figured out

Yup i got flashers and taillights work when i turn on the head lights. I'm ready to get the alignment and even leaving work early to get that done but after almost being rear ended just by taking it around the block im worried

then just turn the head lights on when you go to stop..... if you've got all of that i'm guessing a broken wire somewhere

No the wire must have broken off inside
