I got to thinking about this a little more. Did you actually confirm a broken wire by checking end to end with an ohmmeter? Or are you just extrapolating this because the system behaved with a test jumper?
Also, did you ever try removing that side marker bulb as previously suggested? I see no mention of that, so want to be sure. Please see my previous comments of how a shorted bulb can draw down the available voltage for the rest of a circuit, yet not blow the fuse.

- Have swapped the bulbs left and right sides
- sure itīs broken wire but will wait for the tracer as donīt need to run new cable to the loom

Finally Fixed
Finally I have fixed light tail right signal dimmed light with flashing reverse light
indicator wire got broken somewhere running another wire into the rear loom to replace the broken one.
the trick is should check the wires while both rear light clusters connectors are not connected to rear lights.
hope this help someone.

You can't imagine how many unresolved threads we have here, from folks that never follow up. That gets very frustrating for us when we've been trying to help. In fact, I've been working on a fully autonomous robotic arm for just this problem. If somebody starts a conversation but never wraps it up, the Slap-O-Matic 3000 (catchy name, huh?) will automatically track down the offender and slap them around a little bit. It will also deliver a stern admonition (in a peeved Dad voice) telling the offender to visit the forum and take care of their unfinished business. It will also upload video directly to Youtube. I think it will be very popular with regular forum members.
