Replace the brake light and parking light bulbs on that side, most likely 1 of them has melted and bridged the contacts.
You either have a short, or if you have installed LED bulbs without using the proper load resistors, you will have issues like this.

The SRS computer needs to be reset, if you dont have a repair manual i would first suggest finding one for each car. The basic principal is that you jumper the diagnostic plug (under the glove box in the RL). The next step I believe is that you must depress the TCS button, then while holding it down you turn the key to on, continue to hold the TCS button for 15 sec and then let off. The check engine light should then blink really quick a few times and that means its reset. Im reciting this from memory so dont quote me on it. I have done it before for the RL but not the integra, id really suggest finding a repair manual though.

Hello.
This sounds like you have a bad ground on your Dakota. Trace the wires back until you see that one of the wires is connected to the body or frame with a small screw or small bolt. Make sure that your have a good clean ground to work with.
Another thing that you can check for is to see if there is another light out somewhere else on the truck. Its like christmas lights, when one bulb goes, it can effect all the others just as well. The only other option is to check your fuses, get the fuse diagram and see what controls the taillights. On my truck I have the wrong fuse in there cause only the taillights to work and not the brake lights. Vehicles are very picky with there fuses. If the correct fuse is in there, make sure that the fuse isnt burnt out. You can check that by seeing if the filament in there looks burn or is broken like it popped. Hope this helps!

Look at the upper area of the brake pedal, there is a brake light switch near the brake pedal. On upper side of the brake pedal, there is a plastic part that is worn out and missing. If you see a round hole at the brake pedal, the plastic part came off and missing. You can buy the missing plastic part from the dealer or make one. You will need to plug the hole for the switch to turn off the brake light.
