turn signal and brake lights please help

My car has a new unusual short. I have checked all the bulbs there were one element bulbs where there should have been two but I replaced them have not checked turn signal are they one or two element?
1. The brake lights are still dim.
2. The flashers light but do not flash
3. If the engine is off and the brake is pressed the brakes do not light up but the turn signals do light up.
Any one of these are annoying but all three are really killing me as I have to fix the headlight motors too. The only change is the third brake light has not been replaced when the body shop painted and aligned the car (the trunk hatch was aligned) Any help will be very welcome if anyone knows what is doing what.
