Check the brake light switch in the passenger footwell area. Little white plug.

Doubt that as it's on both sides at the same time with different connections.

cheers guys i will have a look ive had the rear lights out and can say the connections between the connector and light unit cluster look ok and the different bulb holders all look to be in the same condition (indicator and lights)....
I will check the switch in the footwell (this could well be the problem as ive had a clumsy footed passenger in recently)
thanks again
Sean

Must be a bulb issue, because the third brake light is powered by the n/s one
