    So my dash turn signal light (right blinker) is stuck on and when I pump the brakes, my right turn signal lights up instead of the brake. I replaced the front bulb but problem still persists. I haven't replace the rear turn bulb, could that be the issue?

    Welcome!

    Try switching the left and right bulbs. Had a family member that had a bulb go out and it caused other bulbs to light incorrectly, sounds impossible but after a $500 electrical troubleshooting bill it was all caused by a single bad bulb.

    So I changed all rear bulbs (brakes and turn signals) and when I press the brakes, my brakes light up but so does my right turn signal. I have no wiring skills so it's looking like the shop unless there's a logical fix. Any thoughts?
