Yes, most likely the multifunction switch, (turn signal switch).

Shake the turn signal know while you step on the brake pedal and see if the brake light starts working. I had the same problem and it was the turn signal assembly.

I got a new multi function switch and installed it last Saturday and it solved the problem with the brake light.

thanks everyone for your feedback and advice
