Are you getting 12v to one side of the brake light switch/wire?

and do you get 12v out the other side of the switch/wire
when you press the brake pedal?-Bob

and when you press the pedal, do you get 12v back at any of the brake light/wires at the back of the car?-Bob

Enable your private messages, and I can get back with you easier.
Sounds like you already spent some money on parts.
If you want someone to look at it, get back with me.
I can show you how to trace the 12v.-Bob
