RE: taillight problem
The running (parking) lites are not related
to the brake lites other than the use the
SAME BULB. The bulb #1147 #1154 or
other is a dual fillament and either one
or both can burn out.
Take out the bulb and look at the fillaments.
Check the brake pedal switch.
Check the turn sig and hazzards.

On my 86 GT I had a similar problem. I changed the switch, and while I was changing it I found the wires going to the switch were broken off from the movement of the switch over time. Check the wires right at the brake switch for breakage.

that doesn't make much sense why both brake lights would go bad at the same time. I think your problem is with the switch.
