According to this link to a schematic of your car a pink and white wire both go to the brake light switch. Any wire for the neutral switch should be brown.

The stop light switch is about 2/3 of the way down on the left hand side of the schematic.

The schematic loads up real small at first so you will probably need to enlarge it to see it good. All you have to do to enlarge it is click on it.

There are one wires switches somewhat related... the one on the park brake mechanism is one one and the one for low fluid at perportion valve is one wire. The switch at the brake pedal should be 2 wires. Pink is power in and off white is power out and goes on and up the column to the turn signal switch.

drgrcr it's also possible that's the right switch but someone broke off one of the terminals so it looks like a one wire switch. In any case it sounds like you need a new switch.

As a test you can try temporarily touching the pink and white wires together and see if that activates the brake lights.
