its probably a bad ground at the tailights, check them to make sure they are connected and clean them with a wire brush to get a good ground

I'm not sure about the lights/brake issue, but if the left blinker doesn't blink, it might just mean a tailight or front signal bulb is burned out.

check the bulb connection first. if you have aftermarket trailer harness see if someone butchered the harness-scotch lock or butt connectors-need to be soldered and heat shrunk
