Default Where are the electrical fuses on a Columbia Par Car?

I am trying to locate where the fuse block is on this cart. My brake lights do not come on when the brake is applied. The running light work as do the head lights. Any help will be appreciated!

It could be a switch under the break peddle.

Its not a fuse.

Early models did use a micro switch, but later models used a press pad under the brake pad. Most common is the wire breaks on the press pad, as for some reason Par Car thought that bending the wire over the brake pedal at a 90 degree angle was a good idea. This is normally where the broken wire is.

I agree with the comments above, on the few GC I have looked at the fuses were located at various locations in the wiring harness, not in a fuse-block. As for the broken wire, I may be able to help. I have tools, connectors, wire, etc., I am in the village of Pinellas, send me a PM if you want me to look at it.
