Brake Lights do not work

I have an 00 f450 4wd 6 speed. Brake lights do not work. Hazards, turn signals, and lights all work. Have checked the brake light on off switch. I have a chiltons for 250/350 and do not know if the wires are the same color code as the f450. The colors given in the chiltons are there but test differently. Any thoughts.

Have you checked fuses? If you don't have the owner's manual, you can get it here...

What did you do to check the brake pedal switch?
