I just replaced my brake light switch last friday because of the same reason.

It is easy to replace and test...

Pull off the electrical connector from the brake light switch and then jumper it with a wire in the two connections. if your brakes light up then the switch is bad. if they do not light up then you have a wiring issue.

Good lucky buddy! the brake light switch for my fox was $8 and requires a pair of pliers to replace.
