Would surmise a broken and/or chafed wire along the line somewhere.

Found it, checked both F13 & 14 fuses, both good. Still no power through the brake light wire?

All you can do is trace that violet/orange wire from the bcm back until you find the break. Or run a completely new wire which Ford has told us to do as it's much less expensive than tracing wires, just overlay the harness and disconnect the old wire at both ends to prevent a short.

Just need to be sure we're on the same page; it's a 2014 F150 Lariat (seeing the reference in your reply reason I'm saying).

The wire to going to brake light socket is grey with a brown stripe.

Thanks my friend.
