Default Brake lights

Brakes lights aren't working, but the running lights, the blinker, and everything else seems to be doing just fine. I've checked all the fuses, they were hot, and I checked the bulbs. It seems like the lights have power going to them, but I'm stumped. Finally, I knocked the panel out from under the steering column for the brake light switch, and while it's possible that might be the problem, I just don't see it. The thing completes a circuit, that's all it seems to be do, and as far as that goes, there doesn't look to be anything wrong with it.

So I guess I'm just looking for a second opinion before I go spend 40 bucks on a new ones. So thanks.

dont trust the bulbs...replace them and see..prolly the cheapest thing you can do initially...my bulbs seem to go out frequently...right now I have a brake light out on the right rear...but it only goes out when the headlamps and taillamps are lit...when they're off it works but i notice its a little dim...
