It may be helpful if you kinda mention what or how you checked them exactly.
Its not that hard a system, what did you do??
Its probably a simple thing, maybe one of us can save you a couple hundred bucks - cd

Starting from the tail lights I traced them to the rear junction box no power so I traced them to the front at the pressure switch no power so I followed that wire back to the front box no luck there.I just cant seem to find where the brake is and it is really driving me nuts.So much so that I am ready to pay to get it over with.I can't complain to much though this is the first problem I'v had that I wasen't able to work out in two years of working and living in this thing we call home.I even have the manuals just stumped on this one.

Hi, I have an RTS so my help may be limited.
I assume you have the wiring manual if you were able to follow the wiring back to the junction spaces.
Assuming you have the manual and you have traced it back that far, find the fuse panel and check feed for the tail lights there and try to work back.
Now if you don't have a manual, you need to get one but for now, one of the guys here may be willing to copy the page you may need for this problem.
As I said above, its not that hard a circuit, with a diagram, you should be able to find the problem. - cd

There is an old mci service bulletin that has you completely eliminate the stop lite relay in the back junction box. Wire it up direct in its place. It may do the trick.
