Hi Ksoup,

Passenger side bulbs are okay? Do you need to see a wire diagram? It is added.

Diagram was not for brake lights, have put bulb in from left side. Where does the 12 volts split for left and right? (Ignition switch?)

It spits at the turn signal switch which sounds like it is bad. Here is a guide and the blinker wiring so you can confirm the power loss at the switch:

Check out the diagrams (below). Please run some tests and get back to us.

Cheers, Ken
