When I turn the key on the brake lights turn on and when I push the brakes they turn off and third brake light turns on. I have replaced all fuse and brake light switch. Also the transmission position indicator lights go out while truck is on. When in accessory on the TPI is on and brake lights are off. I have replaced ignition switch and thinking multi-function switch. Any other ideas? I have also replaced natural safety switch.

Is brake light switch wired correctly? Scan for codes see if a transmission range switch is messed up for shift light. Also, check grounds battery to body as well as lights in back.
