Oh yes, the brake switch...could very well be that (and I should have thought about that)....if it is that, the bulb out indicator will not light up on your dash, so this is a good clue we're on the right track. The switch in question is a mechanism under the brake pedal. I believe it screws in to decrease clarence betwee it and the brake pedal. It should be fairly snug against the underside of the pedal so that even a small touch of the brake pedal will cause your brake lights to illuninate.
Good luck!
