I have an 01 stype my right rear blinker was coming on very dim. I changed the bulb and now when I hit the turn signal the right and left reverse lights blink, as well as the right blinker. all lights are very dim. The left one works fine. there was no message that the light doesnt work on the message display. anyone have any idea what to do? I really dont want to take it back to mechanic as I just put in new tranny and starter costing me almost 6k. Please help.

Did you use the proper replacement bulb?
Sometimes it's just a matter of the new bulb not being properly seated in its socket, or knocking the other bulbs loose in their sockets while you're replacing the failed bulb or re-installing the taillight assembly back into place....
I would remove the offending taillight assembly again, carefully remove and re-seat all bulbs in it, and then check it for proper operation. If it's working properly again, then carefully re-install the taillight assembly in place and then check it for proper operation one more time....
