The brake lights on my 96 G-20 do not turn on when the brake is applied I have checked bulbs and fuses but all are OK - Any ideas?

[Edit]

Answer

A couple things to check: In general on most cars, the stop light circuit goes through the turn signal switch. When the turn signal is off, the circuit goes directly to the stop-light. When the turn signal is on the circuit is interrupted temporarily and the turn signal circuit operates that side of the stop light bulb. It might be a good idea to check the turn signal circuit to see if anything has been damaged in or around the turn signal switch. I would also check the stop light switch. In some vehicles the switch is mounted under the dash, on the brake pedal pivot arm. These occasionally need adjustment. If the switch is not there it is sometimes on the master cylinder. Check there for a damaged connector or a faulty switch.
