**UPDATE** Sorry it took so long to update but i just found and fixed the problem. I checked all the bulbs and they were good so I checked the trailer wiring (not trusting the previous owners job) and that was the problem. They did a number on it screwed it up. For some reason they cut both wires from the left side license plate buld, twisted them together and twisted the ground and brake wire to both of those. I took the rest of the trailer wiring off (I use a different setup and connecter anyways) and it works beautifully. Thank you all for the help. I appreciate it greatly. I'll upload pictures of the brat and what they did to the wiring soon. Thank you all again!

Thank you for your responses, I wasn't sure if this was a safety feature or something simple. I'll be checking bulbs and cleaning grounds and check wires out. I'll probably just replace all the exterior lights while I'm at it, there all pretty dim but seem to work as they should. I'll update with any new news. Thanks again.

Hey, im new to this forum and the Subaru world. I recently bought a 1985 Subaru Brat and been working on it here and there. I recently replaced all the dash lights and every interior lights to LED's. It gave me no trouble and works perfectly. But recently, now whenever I apply the brake all the exterior park lights, dash lights, and lights that light up the heater come on. When this first happened I noticed the left hand corner light bulb burned out. I replaced it and fixed the problem. After a few days now the problem is back. And none of the light bulbs are burned out. Was wondering if anyone knew of this issue or could supply a electrical diagram to see if somehow its getting shorted to voltage anywhere. I appreciate you taking the time and reading this.
