Can you move out of Park?

The main fuse block is in the engine compartment between battery and driver [on the fender]. Typically fuses in there do not blow.

The distribution fuse box is inside the cabin, almost near the driver left knee ... you can remove the coin box to see it. Fuses are marked.

All of the above is well explained in the user manual.

There is more to the rear brake wiring, if you have the module for trailer. If so check for any corrosion on the trailer connector.

Silly question. Are the brake light bulbs OK? I had to replace those twice on wife's 99 RX300. Not sure why only fuse is considered.
