Brake lights work, blinkers work, seperately. When brakes applied and left hand blinker on, right hand brake light does not work. When brakes applied and right hand blinker on, left hand brake light works. I have no clue what could be doing this, do you?

Hello, sounds like a problem with the turn signal switch? There is a dark green wire that carries the voltage for the right brake lite, comes from the turn switch. There may be a multi-wire connector towards the lower part of steering column, before the wires go into the column. Use a test lite on that wire when the problem occurs, if no voltage, that wire goes to the turn switch.
