Have not dug into this yet but just found on my drive home tonight:
I have no brake lights in the rear lower and my third brake light is staying on. The outside of the dual bulbs in the rear are lighting with my running lights but not the inner lights.
I did a couple months ago switch all the rear bulbs to LEDs and install resistors.
I figured I would post incase one of you guys knew a go to place right away. I am going to pull the tails here shortly.
Thanks!

resolved / fixed.
One passenger side LED was loose and the other was in backwards - car was at a body shop and they removed and re installed that bulb.
All back to normal.
