03 Bonneville taking a turn for the worst

Any help, words of wisdom out there ? Turn on left turn signal, left front comes on, back right also, turn on right turn signal, right front comes on, back left also. Hit the brakes, both back signals come on and stay on, brake light goes out... replaced all bulbs, checked fuses...what gives ???

Thx, couldn't I just run a ground wire from one of the lights to the frame?

I'd start by checking all the stock ground wires, look for anything loose or heavily coroded. You shouldnt need to run new wires, but perhaps there is one needing replaced/repaired.
