the brake lights have stopped working,ive checked the fuses, in the manual its says its a 10amp,but in the fuse box theres a 20amp in there.. under each fuse it is colour code for the relivent fuse, the brake lights 1 is coded yellow (20amp) but the manual says it should be 10 amp???

If all the brake lights including the high level lamp aren't working I'd suspect the brake light switch by brake pedal is faulty before the fuses.
