Default No brake lights

In the middle of doing a rear fender swap to the topshop style cvo fender. I bought the cvo harness, swapped the plugs from the factory harness. Hooked it all up to test fit everything and i have tail lights, and both turn signals but no brake lights. Cvo harness only has 5 wires factoryone has 6. Any input from others that made the swap.

I have not done this

std H-D wiring is:

black for ground
red/yel for brake
blue for run
violet ( left) and brown ( right) for turns.

thats 5.

are these the wires you see?

don't overlook that it is possible that the brake light bulb you are using could be bad, trace the wiring with a testlight if you have one

They are factory cvo tailights. Turn signals work so i know that the lights are good. I will double check the wires when i get home. Thanks.
