Hi all,

I have the same issue. It is not caused by bad earth it is caused by the fact the stop tail lamp uses the same LEDs but has two different resistors fitted one stop and one tail. on activation of the brake 12V is applied to the bottom of the Stop Resistor which as the effect of feeding back down the tail connection via the two resistors in series. as both tail and side are connected to the same switch panel terminal it dimly lights the side lights. a diode to stop the feedback will fix the issue

Thanks
