So I am having a little trouble with my tail lights . I have changed all the bulbs and my tail bulbs and brake bulbs keep stop working . The most recent time even the high level brake light has stoped working and I checked the fuses and changed the one broken fuse . Can someone shed some light on this for me please ?

Short circuit...lose wire.
If your 3rd brake light isn't working then either your passenger brake light isn't working as well or there is a lose/snapped wire

there's a connector under the glovebox, if he's talkin about that one then it's more to the right hand side if your sittin on the seat, simple case of pushin it back in but anytime this has happened with me the brake lights have stayed on constantly

Well I had nother look at the connecter and every thing looks fine . The only other thing I can think of is the brake light switch but I have no idea where that would be ( maybe behind pedal ) or there is fuse box fault .

the connector under the glove box is where the pedal switch or pad is, if you put your hand along a bit you can feel a metal rod that comes from the pedal, basically you push the brake pedal the rod pushes against a pad/switch after a while this pad/switch gets pushed away and the connection isn't made properly and needs to be pushed back into position
