alright the problems all started when i took my taillights off to spray them with taillight tint, i noticed once of the bulbs looked burnt out when i took it out so i order led bulbs off ebay ( they were cheap led bulbs that come from china) i put them in and the brake lights were working the i get stopped by a cop saying i had no brake lights, i dont know whats goin on every other light works, the portion of the taillights that are the brake lights blink when i turn the blinkers on the running lights work but they will not work when i hit the brake pedal i know its not the brake light switch cause my third brake light is working, i check the wires going into the socket they dont seem to be loose or disconnected in anyway i cant find a fuse that says brake lights on my fuse panel i see all other lights like headlights, flashers, etc but not a fuse for brake light i started pulling random fuses until i got tired of pulling them none were burnt, but wouldnt my blinkers not work if i my brake light fuse was burnt out? i switched the bulbs back and forth so i know its not the bulbs, this has got me and everyone else stumped
 
all these rear light problem,s is a classic sign of an earth breakdown clean and secure earths ,it can help if you use a lead conectted to earth an bypass the factory wiring best for safety use a line fuse in the testing lead to avoid possible damage to lamp,s etc
 
i know this sounds funny but it could be in your turn signal switch.
