Check your fuses if it isn't that check and see if your bulbs are blown.

The brake light switch is working the third brake light OK? It is odd that both brake light bulbs could be defective at the same time...the hazard turn and brake light bulbs are 2 stage lights...your best check would be to replace one side tail light bulb, and re-check brake light function...these bulbs are multi functional...the brake switch located behind the brake pedal must be OK for the third brake light to remain functioning...

I have a 1990 Mercury Cougar. Several problems...Blinkers, hazards, horn, and break lights are not working. However the break light in the back window comes on when the break is pressed. Checked fused and...

I am unaware of what a "CO" display is.
Now with the blinkers, hazard, horn and brake lights not working that may be the multi funtion switch (blinker switch) that is located inside the column (where the blinker lever attaches).
Obviously the blinker, hazard and horn will all work off of something in the column. Brake lights, you may think a switch on the pedal.

the brake lights do work with that switch but when you have the kind of tail lights where a turn signal light shares the same bulb as a brake light, the brake light is cancelled for the turn signal by running through the multi function switch inside the column.
The third brake light does not blink so its not on that same circuit.

No break lights, blinkers or hazzards. I changed the fuses. That wasn't it. Still No breaks, blinkers or hazards. Where is the relay?

I would check the turn signal/ hazard flasher module, its on the brake pedal bracket, 5 wires, turn the hazards on and give the side of it a few raps with a screwdriver and see if it starts flashing. The PINK should have 12v. If that checks out good it may need the turn signal switch. At the turn signal switch there is a WHITE wire that should have 12v when the brake is depressed, then you should have 12 on the DARK GREEN and the YELLOW wires coming out. If the center high mounted light works, then the brake switch at the pedal is good.

Breaklights do not work nor do hazards all fuses ok,switch is also good..blinkers work fine.. stumpt

The hazard flasher is a separate flasher by itself for the directional has its own. The brake lights work off the brake light switch mounted by the brake pedal

No tail lights and no interior lights, brake and hazard work

check for the complete fuse box and search for short circuits. Check the fuses and the amps of each. Did you change the battery for a new one? Did you install any device not OEM? An alarm? Check the cable system. If this is ok, scan it.

1982 s10: brake lights, hazards, and blinkers do not work.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO CHECK THE BULBS IN THE REAR LIGHTS THEY OFTEN STOP WORKING IF THERE IS A BURNT ONE . IF NOT THEN CHECK TO SEE IF YOU CAN HEAR THE CLICK WHEN YOU ENGAGE YOUR SIGNAL EACH WAY IT MIGHT BE IN THE STEERING COLOUM WHERE IT CONNECTS TO THE SIGNAL ARM

Lower brake lights dont work,third light does

Turn signal switch 95% of t he time. Try to work your hazards, if it stuck at all will also cause this.
