There's a switch on the brake pedal arm that needs adjustment or replacement.
Hope this helps.
The brake lights don't light up or the taillights don't light up? the brake lights are brighter than the tailights so the tailights won't show up whenbrakes are applied. if no lights work when brakes are applied then check for a bad ground at the light assembly.

check the bulbs ofcourse but also check the wiring harness at the conectors

The fuses are located on the drivers side of car left of your dash cluster.
SOURCE: How do you replace the third brake light on a 2001
remove the trim on the trunk then there are three bolts 10 mm remove those then push up the third brake light and there you go the easiest light to change on a beetle. you will need a phillips to unscrew the trim on the trunk lid the bolts are in the pull down parts. then pull real hard to get the trim out of the clip holders

These cars were very well known to have bad grounds at the tail lamps. I would check the grounds to be sure they are still viable and check the wires to the tail lamps to be sure they haven't corroded.
