Hello Paul and Welcome
I'd have a look at the back of your light switch on the dash, they are bad for burning out the pins.
Does yours have the front and rear fogs or just the rears?
I can send you a spare one to try if you pm me your address.

Also might be worth checking which bulbs you have in the brake lamps and if the holders are fitted correctly and not shorting to another circuit.

Check the wiring loom in the boot. You may need to 'unwrap' the outer tape but there is a known fault where the offside boot hinge hits the loom if it it is not secured properly and it damages the wires. The damage is frequently NOT visible without removing the outer tape covering.
