i have a 1994 ford ranger . the problem is with the right rear turn signal. it works fine except when i step on the brake. at that time, it turns dim and will not flash. all of the other turn signals are not affected like this. i have checked the bulbs and they are all good. i mean the three in the rear tail lite. ---

Dim lights often mean they are not grounded properly. Make sure all parts are present and fastened firmly to the truck’s body or frame (on the metal, not plastic). ---

Agreed that this is a grounding issue. Locate the ground point, clean the connection and re-tighten. ---
