Carolien, it sounds to me like one of your rear bulbs is wired back asswards.
As you know you have 2 filaments in each bulb one for the park lights and one
for your brake like. The brake light filament is a higher wattage than the park
light filament therefore making it brighter. Your problem sounds like the wires
that go to bulb have been crossed.
Turn on your park lights, the bulb that is the brightest of the 2 is the one
with the problem. You can reverse the wires at the bulb and try it again.
Hope this does it for you.

Hi everyone,
I seem to have another strange problem.When I hit the brakes, the left brake
light is brighter than the right. When I turn the headlights on ,the right
on is brighter than the left and when you then hit the brakes, Only the left
seems to brighten,the right stays at the same strength.?????Thanks,Carol '59
