Steve,
The Brake light diagram is on about page 16.  http://beaveramb.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Beaver-Service-Manual-Electrical-Diagrams.pdf
You can find this doc (94-95 patriot) by going to the Private Members board and selecting the Coach Assist post.

Steve,
I am not sure how much benefit the file that Steve Huber posted a link to will be for you because the 94 and 95 Patriot were on a Spartan chassis with full air operated drum brakes and your 96 is on a Magnum chassis with air over hydraulic disc brakes. So when you start trouble shooting the issue, you need to be aware of the differences.
