No worries it sounds like the leds may have gone in the 3rd brake light too

The LED lights up when the break light is pressed, is this still a break light switch problem?

Hmmm so the end leds are on all the time but they all work when you press the brake pedal?

Right first I would check out the bulbs in the rear clusters if they are blown replace them. Then you may find they are on all the time is so its the switch 

If not let us know
