Check the bulbs first.
Do you have a connector for trailer lights ? Could be corrosion in the connector.

are the rear lights dead completely, or do just the brakes not work?
i had the exact same problem in my truck. mines an 02, but assuming yours isnt too different, the third light works, so you know the brake sensor switch is working fine. For me it was a loose connection going into the multiswitch. the multiswitch is the blinker stalk. for me all my lights worked but the brakes.

If there is any trailer wiring installed, remove it, then test. Whenever this is installed by a "DIY'er" using scotch locks or crimps, there is almost always going to be a faulty connection or eventual splice problem. Those cheap "boxes" that convert from 4 prong to 5 can be garbage as well.

Not sure if that model year has the same wiring set up my 06 does, but I lost brake lights and signals (same filament on the bulb) I tried changing bulbs, checked fuses. Etc.
Turned out to be the plug under the truck that connects the lights to the wiring that goes along then frame.
Was a tad loose, I unplugged it and there was a bit of dirt inside. Knocked it out, plugged in, viola. Lights.
Worth a look.
