Third brake light works, turn signals work in main taillights, but brake lights don't work in main light assy's. What could that be?

The same wire that feeds the high mount light also feeds the lower brake lights so you need to find the splice back there and see where the power is being lost.
The wire is white with tan.

I appreciate the help, but why do the turn signals work and the brake lights don't? They're the same filament in the bulb. Is there something that cycles the brake light bulb as the turn signal switches?

Thank you very much. I got some bad advice & replaced the wrong bulbs, which, it appears, were fine. I should have replaced the upper ones.
I appreciate the help very much.
