Lights Are F*cked?!?!

[gutlessrhyme]

one of the brake lights stopped working a few weeks back (assumed it was a bulb). didnt change it, then the other day, the other brake light went! took the bulbs out and they are fine!! THEN when the brake pedal was pressed, the indicator light came on in the dashboard!!!

now the indicator problem is sorted, but the brake lights still dont work??

any ideas what it could be? (they are lexus lights, and we have checked connections as much as we can)

unless your a blind man then yes you will, its on the side facing the seat, you will also discover the clips sharper than a samuarai sword, a finger may well fall off on contact with it.
