have a look at the plug that goes into the light and also the pins that are on the light unit itself they may need a little cleaning up

inside the car, cant see it being a fuse or they both would be off ?
may be a loose connection i stripped the connectors off mine and used spade connectors not had a problem since 
if you do this tho make sure to save your connector on the car just incase you get some nice rear lights that might work in the future

206 brake lights have 2 fuses.
For a multiplexed 206:
Right brake light is on fuse F20 - 10 amp
Left & high level brake lights are on fuse F21 - 15 amp
There MINI blade type fuses in the BSI unit.
