Rear brake lights not working

OK, so have 08 SMAX. All of a sudden the top rear brake lights are not working. When I turn on I get the following error "Stop lamps bulb fault" I checked and it is the row of light at the top of the boot. It was strange as it was working, I got the error a day ago but it went. Now it come back and not going away. Done…

I checked and it is the row of light at the top of the boot. It was strange as it was working, I got the error a day ago but it went. Now it come back and not going away. Done some research and it mentioned that if you pull the battery power and then put it back that wil reset system and bring them back? any idea's if this will work?

I did pull into garage in Dublin the other day and got them to replace the fuse for cigarette lighter and it was after this I got error so wondering if this could be the issue. I am about 3 hours away from garage now so cant really head back.....
