1984 chevy 1500 driver side brake

1984 chevy 1500

driver side brake and signal light not working. Parking light works but is too bright. volt metre shows a ticking the same readings as the passenger side until a bulb is inserted then shows nothing. recently problem got worse. signal light indicator on dash for right hand signal stays on when lights are turned on and brake lights and signals don't work at all. was going back to normal after a drive down the road but now stays like that.
-Other things that might be helpful-

Replaced passenger side taillight socket within the year
Replaced driver side socket when current problem started
Appears to be an exposed wire on the signal switch itself
...

Would be nice to know where a good place to start is... I don't want to open up the steering column until ive used all other options because i don't know how to open i it easily

- Thanks.. Im actually thinking about running a new wire bundle to the rear end.. wires are probably getting old anyways and i know that i get readings on the engine compartment side of the fuse panel for all the lights.
