My brake lights went out and first thing i checked was the fuse, sure enough it was blown so i got a new on and still....nothing. What else could it be, i dont want to be driving around w/ brake lights and having to stick my arm outside to signal braking (looking all gheto i suppose)

 

Both are out? Have you checked the bulbs?...although, it would be odd to have both blown at the same time...hope its not a short.
