90s Jimmy
I have a 90s Jimmy and no owners manual. The brake lights are not working. The tail lights are fine. Even the brake light at the top of the back window does not come on.

if you just follow the brake pedal up under the dash you should see the brake light switch and you may want to test it before actually replacing it you can check it with a test light or even just disconect it and jumper it to see if the brake lights come on if they come on supect bad switch if they do not come on with it jumpered would start checking fuses.

Back to the drawing board
Thanks for your help. I have changed the switch and still no lights. Checked and replaced the brake light fuse and still no brake lights.
Any more direction.

Pull one of the bulbs out. I think these cars use one bulb for tail lights and brake. One of the filiments in the bulb maybe burnt out. Check them all.

i would check the output wirefrom the brakeswitch should be white wire if i remember right
with pedal pushed should have 12 volts
if you have it there then check where it goes up to the multifunction switch
only strange part is usually u will have the high mount light work and the lower 2 stop working

Brake lights not working.
This caused the brake lights not to work. Hope this helps, if not PM me and I will look it up, as I now have the service manual for the 92 and 94 jimmy.
