Oldsmobile/Buick Repair: Brake light problem on 2001 Alero, olds alero, brake light switch

Question
Hello,

I have a 2001 Olds Alero that when applying the brakes the left and right brake-lights do not operate but the center brake light does.  When the lights of the car are on they light up but do not get brighter when the brakes are applied. I've checked the bulbs and both filaments are good and I've checked the fuse which was good as well.  Any other ideas?  Is there a brake-light switch somewhere that I could try replacing?

Thank you!

Answer
Hi
If possible check for power on the Light blue wire in rear at the connector that goes into the rear lamp holder (Circuit board)
If the lt. blue wire gets hot with pedal apply, the circuit boards are at fault.
I would suspect the circuit boards.
I hope this helps.
Good luck
