Brake lights stopped working (they are not burnt). Where is the switch for the brake lights? Where else should I look - or what should I look for - to figure out where the problem is...?

Brake switch is under dash beside brake pedal.
Check brake fuse??

you can check the fuses for them. they are to the left of the steering wheel just below the wheel. there is a little compartment you can open. pull it out and the fuse panel is hehind it.
