Default Dodge Avenger lighting problem

I have a 2008 dodge avenger, the rear tail lights turn on when I turn on the main switch, I checked all fuzes and the rear light bulbs, but there are no negative indications, so everything is actualy good. When I brakeor turn on the turn signals the lights will not turn on. What can it be? And what wires can i check?

There are TWO filiments in the bulbs , one is the running lights the other is the turn signal /brake "light"
Do your FRONT turn signals work ???
Does the third brake light come on ???

Thumbs up For those who have problems with rear lights,brakelights, and rear turning signals

For those who have problems with rear lights,brakelights, and rear turning signals I found how to fix the problem without paying!! After I posted the topic about my 2008 Dodge Avenger I went ahead and decided to see the closest Dodge dealer nearby. All you have to do is ask them to run a scan on your vehicles computer and they will do it. While performing the computer check they said there were errors in the signal and brake line. So they were able to RESET it. After all it will be a happy ending!!!

If its anything electrical to do with the car, dont even bother calling the main Dodge Headquarters because they were worthless.

Did you check the wiring to the tail light lamp for possible short?
