Default Okay, so now what? HELP!

Okay, so a couple of weeks ago I posted for some help with L.E.D. turn signal and brake bulbs in the Electronics forum. I never could get the L.E.D.s working properly so today I decided to go back to the old filiment bulbs. Problem is - my car's still doing the same thing! [:@]

I've figured out the problem, but don't know how to fix it. The brake/parking/blinker bulbs have 3 wires running to them. Ground, blinker, and constant power when the parking lights are on. All the other bulbs on the car have 2 wires. Constant power(as described before), and ground.

Now I have a repair manual on the car and according to it, all the parking lights are run from the same original wire. So I don't really think it could be crossing with the blinker wire...(maybe I'm wrong)

What the car is doing is when the right(passenger side) turn signal is on; instead of sending power through just the blinker wire, it's sending it through both of them - causing all the lights to blink.

The other thing it's doing is when the brake pedal is depressed, the front parking lights come on...




I really have no idea how to fix this aside from taking the car into the dealer (which I don't have the money to do). [] So please help! Thanks!
