Listers, small problem with my rear brake lights...THEY DON'T WORK!

 So I check the fuses & while didling with fuse #3....horn/brake
lights/P-lock buzzer/2nd & 3rd stage fan relay...I can see it lighting
up, or arching, & while pushing the horn in I hear & feel the Logic
relay for P/N-lock & relay for back-up-lights click.

 All bulbs are good, license plate lights light up, hazards work, turn
signals work, ect...just no brake lights.

 I all so checked the brake switches at the pedal, but couldn't get
eather to light up with a circuit tester...is that my problem...the
pedal switches?
 I replaced both relays in the pannel as well, but they still click.

 Any help would be great since in 2 weeks I'll be dropping the car off
in MN to it's owner.

 Ron
