TAKE A LOOK AT THE HEAD LIGHT SWITCH FOR PROBLEMS OR TURN SIGNAL SWITCH OR FLASHER SWITCH OR FLASHER RELAY MODULE

GuruQMG1R- So one of those might fix the actual brake light itself cause it’s just the big red one on the quarter panel mounted tail light that doesn’t work when you turn them on at night until pressure is applied to the brake pedal but all the other lights work like they should and if so where exactly would they be located on the car?
