tail lights drivng me crazy......Shoebox????

i just found out that my tail lights dont work properly. when i drive around town during the day everything functions fine. but when i turn on the lights at night the rear RH blinker doesnt work that well. and then if i press the brake all the lights go out in the RH side. i saw that the LH tailights were grounded so i tried it on the RH side and it worked but the brake light stays on and you cant see the blinker. if i disconnect the wire i grounded to the light socket i could see the blinker but when i braked everything would turn off again. i really need help fast cuz its driving me crazy, i have spent about 6hrs straight running around town getting light bulbs and then trying to figure this damn thing out. please help me out guys

You might have some socket corrosion issues. I would take all of them apart and check it out. Clean any corrosion and use new bulb grease (you can get it at the auto parts store).
