Default 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 * No brake lights

Third brake light works as well as the tail lights and turn signals. I've replaced the bulbs, tail light assy and have ck'ed the fuse.

I'm at a complete loss here. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

On the 06 lights, they are serviced by a bus (the grey bulb holder)

Are any of your bulbs working? (Reverse/Signal)

Yes Sir, all lights work except both brake lights. I replaced the grey bulb holder also.

Are there any hidden fuses on this model?

Thank you,

OP said that the third brake light work as normal, so that should mean that the brake switch is working... With everything else he replaced already I wonder if the problem is going to be with the corroded ground connections inside the fuse box.
