Brake lights wont come on!! please help (VIDEO INCLUDED!!)*
I just noticed my brake lights wont turn on..the turn signals work and the headlight switch turns them on but the brake pedal being pressed the brake lights dont work...today i took out the brakelight switch and opened it up to inspect for wear or broken pieces, and everything is in good order, i tried jumping the wires themselves and nothing. is there a relay. i cant find my book with the diagrams so im stuck.... i tried seach but nothing

i finally got the hatch to open. i pulled the plastic off to access the taillight housing, i removed the four plastic nuts, but the housing wont come out. it comes out an inch and like something else is still attached to it, i remove the bulb to inspect and the glass part isnt attached to the vaccum in the bulb is gone... how do i remove the taillight housing search doesnt work
