I am away from home and don't have any manuals with me - Brake Light Ground Location?

I have a brake light problem that is whenever I apply the brakes, only the 3rd brake light comes on.

I don't think it is the brake switch because the brake lights must be getting a signal if the 3rd brake light is responding.

I really do not think all the bulbs blew at one time.

I checked the fuse and it's fine, and the hazards are working fine (run off the same fuse).

So I imagine the only probable culprit left would be a bad ground. The problem is that I am away from home and don't have any manuals with me. Can anyone please help me out by guiding me where the main brake light ground is located?

Thanks.

Night Hawk,

What year is your car? IIRC, my '86 has a separate switch for the CHiSt light.
