Default Brake Light Confusion

Having trouble with a main brake light issue on my 97 Blazer. The 2 main lights don't work, but the 3rd works fine. Turn signals work, but Hazards do not. Brake Fuse and Hazard fuses are good but not receiving enough power fuse slot to trip a test light (test light is good), but shows voltage on a meter. Reverse lights also work, as do the Park/Driving lights. I also just replaced the Brake Switch on the pedal. Anit-Lock ABS dash light is now on.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bring it to a Chevy dealership for the non-functioning brake and hazards lights. There was a recall for that problem in the mid 2000's. They'll run the VIN to see if it has been fixed and if not will fix it for free.

As for the ABS light being on, that brake switch you replaced also ties into the ABS. Double check the installation and/or have the code(s) pulled to find out why the light is on.
