See full version: Tail Lights Go Dim or Out When Brakes are Applied
I rewired my trailer and now have the following problem. Left and right blinkers work as do running lights, however when the brakes are applied on the vehicle the tail lights go out. This is small utility trailer connected with 4 pole flat plug to 2004 ford ranger with factory tow package.

It sounds like you have a bad ground connection. If all ground connections are not making good contact to bare metal, when the brake pedal is pressed and the tail lights are on, the increased amperage draw will make this problem show up. more

Sounds like a ground issue on that side. You stated the socket is brown at the base, could it be burnt? When a socket looses its ground it can show a burnt mark in the base, a good test light or ohm meter can confirm a bad ground. A replacement socket should be available from your local parts store.
Mine is the same way it keep going out on the driver side I have replaced it two times in one month I need help? more
