Ground at the rear drivers side at the bumper :shrug:

Is the switch installed properly? Move the switch without the pedal to see if it works?

I'm following this thread closely, as I am experiencing almost the exact same thing.

About a year ago, I had problems with the left side...it turned out the electrical connector for a trailer corroded. I removed the intermediate connector, cleaned it up and everything turned out fine.

Hopefully I'll find a solution to my problem by following yours! Lol!

My problem was the wires that go to the brake light switch had somehow gotten sliced and another connector had come undone...took a while to figure out because it's so far behind everything in the dash..luckily I'm not a big guy or I wouldn't have been able to get it
