    Hey all, I was wiring up my third brake light for my camper shell today, and when I went to test it I noticed none of my brake lights worked. Tail lights still work, reverse lights work, turn signals work, but nothing happens when I hit the brake pedal. I’m assuming something went wrong when I was trying to do my own wiring but not sure what? Maybe a blown fuse? If it’s a blown fuse does anyone have a wiring diagram or know where the brake light fuse is? Thanks in advance I’m hoping to get this solved pretty quickly!

    Thank you! I found my issue, it actually was that fuse and was due to a very dumb mistake when wiring lol. Really appreciate the help though!
