My brakelights won't light up....Help!

Do your parking lights come on? Theyre on the same circuit. I had this happen where I kept blowing fuses. Turned out to be a wire rubbing against the metal on the trunk lid and causing a short.
It made me absolutely furious for about 5 days before I found it. I fixed it that day in january when it was 8 degrees in NYC.
One bad bulb can make this happen too. Check your fuse first. Then the bulbs. Both tail light bulbs and the parking lights. Sometimes if you just remove and reinstall the bulb they will start working.
If that doesnt work just repost and we'll move on from there.
