Brake lights not working....

Any ideas?
Symptoms:
Brakes light up when pressed. Turn signals work, reverse works.
Brakes do not light up at night (but again, work when pressed).
I checked the fuses, i'll double check again tonight (any fuse I should check that wouldn't be the obvious choice?)
Double checked the tail light failure sensor, that wasn't burnt, even swapped in a new one, didn't fix the issue.

So I can put this to rest.
My mechanic figured it out and it explains while I was having such a tough time diagnosing this.
As 02Legend correctly guessed, 2 of my bulbs had the low filament out, on top of that, I also had a fuse blown, that looked not blown. (i ended up replacing the wrong bulbs that weren't lighting up at all).
Now everything lights up - side markers and brakes.

Glad to hear you got it figured out and fixed. I work with electronics for a living and sometimes it can be a real pain in the *** to pinpoint the problem. Fuses can look fine to the naked eye when glancing at them. If possible check them with a fuse tester or multi-meter when possible.
