Third Brake Light

I thought the bulbs in my third brakelight [I have a stock spoiler, so they are located there] were just out, and replaced them. The light still doesn't work. The other two brakelights work fine, is there a seperate fuse for this light somewhere? I couldn't find one. It's pretty cold and I've got a broken pinky that didn't like the cold to much so I wasn't poking around for too long, just wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.

I had the same problem when I first bought mine... look at the harness that goes down on the left trunklid hinge, and connects above the seatbelt mount in the trunk. This section flexes when the lid is opened/closed, and some of the wires in there can get pinched/broken. Most likely, you have a broken wire there.
