My third break light went out .. I don't know what to check first.. Any wire that may have come loose? A fuse that went out? An led went out? .. Has anyone's third break light gone out too?

There is a connecter in your trunk from the third brake light, under the rear deck, easy to find.
Check that first, see if your regular brake lights work.
A fuse controls all 3 brake lights, (underneath the drivers knee panel)
I know this because I used that fuse to tap into for my BlackVue camera, it has power all the time.

This is on a BRZ, but should be the same on the FRS.
