Default Problems with the taillights

My problems is that my taillights dont work when I hit the breaks just when I turn on the lights. I though it was a fuse so I look in the fuse box to see if it was a blown fuse but it wasnt a fuse and now the turn signals are acting up also. Does anyone knows anybody that can fix my problem?

Have you checked the brake switch on the brake pedal? Do none of the brake lights come on, or is it just limited to the tail lights but the third brake light still works?

I dont think is the break swith on the break pedal, the lights will turn on when I put the emergency break down and when I turn the lights on it looks like Im hit in the breaks and the turning signals are acting up, like the will tick like twice and thats it

Weird. Could be the switch on the stalk, that would affect pretty much everything at once. Could also be the power going to the stalk. The fact that it affects different functions at the same time actually narrows down the potential culprits, because it has to be something common to multiple circuits.
