The brake and dash lamps are often fed through the same fuse. Try reseating the fuse or swap it with another of the same rating in the fuse panel.

Flashing lights

See if any garages or auto parts stores will do an error code check. O'Reillys in my town does it for free and usually takes less than 15 minutes. One of the sensors seems to be getting a bad reading and the error code will tell you which one.

Brake lights don't work

Have you checked the brake switch? It is located under the drives side of the dash mounted on the brake pedal lever. There should be power on one of the wires a.l the time. The other wire should have power with the pedal depressed. It is not uncommon for the wires to brake at the switch.
