All the turn signals, running lights and brake lights work when I don't have my lights on. But once I turn on the lights, the brake lights stay lit as running lights, but don't change when braking. Also, both turn indicator lights light up on the dash (not on the outside) when brakes are applied and lights are on, but don't do it when lights are off. All parts/bulbs are factory stock, so nothing fancy. Any ideas as to what I could check would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the reply. Just checked and yes the third brake light works both with the lights on and off. Also, turn indicators don't work when lights are on either (forgot to put that in the original post).
