Driver side works just fine. Just started doing it a month ago. First thought bulb was bad so replaced it yesterday but no luck. Chrysler dealer said could be a short but I have no idea where it could be. Stressing me out.
Sometimes such a problem is because the ground wire for that light is bad, and so the electricity is feeding to ground through the back-up light.
Try to run a new ground wire from that light socket to the steel body ground.
Be blessed.
So do I run a new ground wire from the cars taillight connector or from the connector on the taillight itself?
For testing, it would work to have a jumper cable from the battery ground to touch your testing wire to. For fixing, a wire from the bulb ground to anywhere you can find that makes a good ground will do.

It sounds like your brake light switch is out. It's located on the brake pedal and is relatively easy and cheap to replace. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for rating my response and for using FixYa!

SOURCE: 2000 Sebring has no brake lights
it will not be a short a short would either blow fuses, cause fire, or leave the lights on all the time. I would say that the brake switch at the pedal will be your issue

Hello! Back-up lights are controlled by a relay. Under hood is the "Power Distribution Box"; Open hinged lid and locate back-up lights relay. Remove and replace. You may notice that relay is melted; They are well known for this.

It's quite common for headlight connectors to become so tarnished that one or both of the filaments in the headlights is either dim or non-functional. One way to clean them up is to cut a strip of steel the same width as the terminal blades on the headlight (this is for push-on connectors; some vehicles use screw terminals) and long enough to hold conveniently, then cut a strip of Scotch-Brite about 6-8" long and the same width. Wrap and hold the Scotch-Brite around one end of the strip to make your contact cleaning device. Push it into the connector contact and pull it out several times. Repeat for each contact. Next, identify the ground wire for each headlight connector (black or green wire that connects to vehicle body metal somewhere nearby). Unscrew the ground terminal from the vehicle body and polish the terminal and the underside of the screw head, and clean the body metal in the area covered by the terminal.
If the headlight comes on but is still dim, repeat the connector cleaning procedure. If the headlight connector is very severely corroded, you may need to replace it.
