To test the brake light switch, disconnect the electrical connector from the switch, and check for voltage on pin 6 of the connector. If voltage is present, jumper pin 6 to pin 5. If the brake lights light up when you do that, you've got a problem with the switch.
If you don't have voltage on pin 6, then double-check your fuse.
Thank You, will test switch
