Brake Lights not working... help?

Well I've just noticed that my brake lights aren't working anymore (87 N/A base).... checked the fuses & they're all fine. Anything else I can check? I really don't have lots of $$$ to bring my car to the mechanic

TIA

Most likely cause of failure is the brake light switch at the top of the brake pedal. If this is ok, then the other cause would be a bad connector in the CPU and/or wiring.
