Right turn signal/brake light.

I have a 1994 Formula and my right brake light is out, just one(it is divided into like 4/5 sections) and just one section is out. My right turn signal doesn't flash it just stays on. Is the brake light being out the cause or has the relay crapped out?

I forgot to add the rear turn signal doesn't come on at all. Just the front signal stays on.

I haven't touched anything electrical. It's been doing this since I bought it 2 months ago, It finally annoyed me enough to fix it.

You said it was like that when you bought it???? Bummer then. Don't mess with the electrical crap aside from the regular bulb check stuff. Take it too someone or ask the guy you bought it from how long it was like that. Either way, I know pros who have a difficult time diagnosing electrical problems so dont mess with it yourself.
