    I am new here so not sure if this is correct spot.. any ways

    2005 jeep grand cherokee limited 5.7 this jeep has been a pain in my *** electrically since i got it lol i just got it back on the road finally and i noticed!!! i have no brake lights. i changed the bulbs then changed the strips in both tail lights as they where rusted also changed stop switch on petal wasted $90 so far blinkers work running lights work checked all fuses then after reading a few diff threads i checked for power at fuse 27 under the hood it does have power

    Also i should note i changed the main fuse box inside the jeep not long ago due to the sun roof backing up and getting it wet.

    Hey @jws123 . Yes. There should be a relay in the line some where. And most likely. A fuseable link. After every thing you changed and swapped out. It sounds electrical. :cool:.
    I'm sorry dude. I couldnt help myself. Electrical issues are not my strong suit. Honestly...don't really have one. Lolllllo.

    Hope another member helps find a fix. I'm :popcorn:.

    So I have had a similar experience with my 99 grand the problem turned out to be the metal connectors in the brake light housing had became loose
