I can't find a fuse number for your vehicle tail lights in your owners manual. You may want to check your parking lamp fuse number 22 and 43. If you are referring to your trailer you will want to check fuses 18, 24, 28, and 33. You will also want to check relay 37 and 38 and 45.
There is also a good chance that you have a ground wire that needs to be cleaned for your brake lights. I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test function of lights when you have a good ground connection.
