If it is working at the front, then you know you have a wire problem between the switch and the lamp.
That's the problem. turn signals work front and rear. I have no tail lights or stop lights on the left rear. tail-lights did work before I put the new brake light switch in to get the brake lights working. It's not the right brake switch, it's a basic pressure switch as my local carquest lists the orig as NLA, and the pressure switch was on the shelf. I don't think the switch diffrence will matter. It's for a 12v system but it's just a switch.

I'm going to re wire the tail lights as far to the front of the car as I can anyway.
