Brake light

So in my 2002 Civic Ex sedan my left brake light doesn't turn on when I press the brake, when I have the lights on it turns on but when press the brake down the other one is much brighter. Is this a wiring issue or a fuse I didn't see that there was a separate fuse so I was thinking it could be just a bad housing for the light. Any suggestions?

Its not your fault you don’t have a extra 14foot tentacle to reach the brake pedal as your working on the tail lights, so don’t be hard on yourself.

Finding out you were working on the wrong bulb after replacing the housing and sub-harness is usually when you should smack your head and say aloud “I shoulda had a V8!”.
