Brake Light

Brake Light
Have a 2006 mustang convertible with 20k miles. I drove the car in a rain and my brake lights went out. I only have 2 brake lights on driver side only plus third brake light. I check all the bulbs and they are all good. What do I need to check now? Thanks

So...you have no brake lights...or you have some brake lights that work? I'm a little confused by your nomenclature.
If you have zero brake lights, check the wiring at the brake light switch. I'll bet the wiring is bad at or near the connector.

I believe he is saying that his passenger side brake lights do not work. When you use your right hand side turn signal does anything work on your passenger side? I don't recall, don't know if ours have separate bulbs for brake and turn. If left side, and center brake lights work, I be wondering if their is a wire from driver side to passenger side brake light that has taken a header, OR, if the ground for the passenger side has gone bad?

Ancient memory here. I have not had that many cars in my life. My last two sold had a combined mileage of 507k. But a common denominator was, I vaguely recall, when the turn signal bulb died, that the turn indicator in the dash would get wonky. Are you having that problem? Maybe it might point to a ground issue on the deceased lights? Do you have a volt/ohm meter? Check to see if you are getting power to the bulbs?
