Default rear tail lights

When I have my blinker on and apply my brakes the rear blinkers act like hazards any tips?

It sound like you have a bad earth. Check to make sure there is no corrosion on the light cluster circuit. If there is try cleaning it off with an electrical spray and some fine emery cloth.

Sorry I can't be more specific.

Maybe try disconnecting either the left or right side rear light cluster and see if the problem still persists. That might at least let you know if the problem is on the left or right side of the vehicle. My bet is that it's corrosion on the circuit board of the light cluster.

Good luck.
