OP,

Your profile says you have a 2004 C5. What year are you asking about:?

This is the C7 forum...

According to my OM (2015 C7) fuses 39 and 40 under hood are for Left and Right headlamps respectively. You might check fuse 39 as my OM does not show a fuse for the Brake light.

Here are some wiring diagrams I found. Fuse # may be different depending on model year. Please put some basic car info in your posts...

Rear brake light, and tail lights are the same led assembly. Intensity is varied by pulse duty cycle.
