Default RR Brake lights not working

Hello All,

I have an 02 vette and the RR brake lights will not work. The tail lights, and turn signals work though. All fuses bulbs sockets have been checked. I can not figure this out. Please help me if you have had this same problem or have some ideas of what it might be.

Also does the multifunctional switch have anything to do with the brake lights?

Does the c5 have a brake light switch in it. i can not see one or find a part online anywhere?

If anyone could help me with this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Respectfully,
Peren

The C5 has a brake light switch and the turn signal switch is involved in switching the current to the appropriate bulb.

Here are the relevant schematics:
