Double check all the bulbs. Sometimes both filaments will touch each other cause a back feed from the brake light to the turn signal flasher stopping its action. Sounds weird, but it has happened before.

SOURCE: No brake lights - good bulbs, good fuse, Flashers

renew the brake light switch it has two circuits inside it

Testimonial: "I can't believe how quick the response was, and it verifies what I suspected. I wanted another opinion before I purchased a new switch, Thanks!"

Tail Light/When I BRAKE The left Directional STOPS

Ernest, a lot of the time when this happens it is telling you the bulb burnt out or wire/socket is faulty(bulbs can look OK so it is best to test them if you can). Check/clean for corroded ground wires in that area also. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

When break pressed turn signal turns stays on and doesnt flash

My first guess would be a ground problem. The bulbs are mounted in plastic sockets and grounded to the car by a black wire. If one socket is not grounded it will try to ground thru a different socket.
I would check for voltage and ground on each socket in the back.

When i press brake pedal driver side brake light quits working but other wise it works fine?

That has a double filament bulb in it. One is for the tail light and the other for the brake and maybe the turn signal. If your turn signal flashes the tail light and not an individual turn signal bulb it will behave the same way. The way it works is that the tail light filament goes off and the brighter brake light filament comes on. The brake light half of the bulb is out. If you change it, change the passenger side too, it will do the same shortly if you leave it in. They tend to go bad in pairs. Good luck.
