have u checked the button under the brake petal? maybe the petal isnt making it to the button but its stopping the car?
I take it the tail lights work, but the brake lights don't.
So I'd check the 20A brake fuse (STOP fuse) in the #1 Junction block.

While you're at it, if the fuse looks good, check to see that one of the fuse receptacles has power. It should have power all the time.

check the lamp failure modual behind the drivers side brake light... my buddy just had this problem. no break lights. that was the problem.
Yup......the light failure module could also be your problem.
But first, I'd check the fuse first and see that it has power. Then work your way aft in the car.

the brake light module is the that white box looking thing? how much does that go for anyways? anyone know?
that's the same problem i just got over, had parking lights/driving lights, but no brake lights. I bought one of the modules off ebay for about $12 or so, and now everything's working fine.
i went to Allied Auto today to get a quote but they didn't seem to know what i was talking about when i said 'Lamp Failure Module' and i told them how it was located behind the driverside brake light, but then they went in the back and looked in their books and they found some other module that is located in the glovebox area that also works along with the ABS system. what is the "P.C" haha name for the part? and is it that white box/harness looking thing, i just want to make sure, that's the only thing i see located by the driver side brake light.
