Default Brake light issue

Hello all! New to the forum. I hope this thread finds you all well and Happy Holidays! I have an issue that I don't know how to attack. My left ( driver side ) brake light is out. I began with replacing the bulb. I checked the fuses. It remains inoperable. I switched the housing from the right side. It still is inoperable. Any thoughts? Thank you for your advise.
