Did you check the fuse? Either the fuse may be out, or the brake light swith on the brake pedal may be out or need adjusting. You should have 12 volts at the brake switch.
Lights are headlight/bulb out indicator relay and the windows are most likely the conveinece relay or a fuse. Spin the fuses because due to corrosion they may not have clean contact.
Its you headlight/bulb out indicator relay under the screwed down area behind your fuse box. Its longest relay in there. Failure rate for that age of vehicle is high for that part. Expensive new but cheap if you can get them froma bone yard. Also most W126 body styles have them also like the SEL's and SE's.
You have to check the brake light switch which should be around the brake pedal on the upperside.
Ones located rremove the wires tht go to the switch and jump them by using a piece of wire, thn check if the brake lights come 'on'. If they do , thn its the switch tht may need replacing or even sometimes adjusting inorder to operate.
Hope this helps.
Have you check the brake switch on the peddle arm?There is a switch at the bootom of the dash with a button,when you push the brake it allows the button stem to extend out witch activates the brake lights.
