The deck lid brake light works but the 2 tail light ones do not. Could you please recommend a fix for this problem? My vehicle is a 2004 SEBRING LX 4 door sedan. Thanks!

Check the bulbs. The brake light bulb has two filaments, one for the brake light, one for the tail light. If the bright filament is burned out, the tail light will still work.

Both filaments in both taillights are intact. What fuse(s) should I check? If the deck lid stop light works but not the other two, should I eliminate the brake pedal switch as a possible cause? Sure hope it's not a wiring problem! Thanks, DC!
If the center high mounted stop light (known as the CHMSL) works, then forget the fuse and switch as all the stop lights go through the same fuse and switch. (Fuse 11 under the hood).
The stop lights are fed by a white and tan wire. Check that for voltage when the brake pedal is depressed. If you have voltage there, then the only other likely thing is a bad ground. Check the black wire for ground.
A $6.00 pair of 3157 bulbs solved the problem. Stop lights glow brighter than my grandpappy's nose after he tosses down a few shots of Christian Brothers Brandy. Merry Christmas, y'all!
