My rear lights don't come on when light switch its turn on. They only turn on when i press the brake pedal?

(same with the cluster assmbly) on my 1992 honda civic 4 door.
All bulbs are good. Just replaced all fuses.

Take the bulbs out and check for power at the socket contacts. If dead then peel the loom back at the hinge inside the trunk. Looking for broken wires there.

You gotta be smarter than the light switch, Skippy.
