Turn signal/brakelight problem by minimouse

I have a 2000 Nissan Sentra GXE.
 
I'm having a strange problem with my left turn signal/brake light/headlight system and can't figure it out. when I turn on my left turn signal and it works fine until I press on the brake then the signal dims way down, the brake light flashes, and the lights over the license plate flashes as well. It gets even worse when the head lights are on. The right side works perfectly.
I've tried replacing the bulbs and checking the harness at the back light system by swapping it with the right side. I also checked to see if its a grounding problem by temporarily connecting my jumper cables from the negative terminal on the battery to the engine block - no help.
I would really appreciate any help or ideas anyone has for this.
Thanks!

Recently Purchased a 2008 Nissan Sentra SL. Garmin GPS is connected to 12V power outlet, but it was still power on after shutoff the engine. when i went to dealer they are saying it was designed to supply the continues power supply. Is this happening to all of you guys.

not sure about the sentra, but the altima has 2 powerports. 1 stays on when the car is off and the other doesn't.

I Have a 1992 Nissan sentra.
 
And sometimes anything to do with the dash board area (turn signals, brake lights, shifter and a/c you get the idea) will stop working and if you take the battery cable off for awhile it will work again. Any ideas on whats causing this? changed the fuses the battery cables already.

2008 Sentra Leaking by tmason1

I have a new 2008 Sentra and I was wondering if any is having troubles with the car leaking. The drivers side of this car is leaking when it rains and also the radio is having to be replaced because it stopped working and would only go to mute if any of the buttons were pushed. Also the radio lights remain on after the car is turned off.

I just purchased a new 2008 Sentra. It was raining on the way home from the car dealership when I felt a couple drops of water on my left foot while driving. I will be taking my car back to the dealer today about this. Apparently you are not the only one.

minimouse,
 
I have the same problem with my Sentra. Did you ever get an answer?
 
Left turn signal/brake light/headlight system: When I turn on my left turn signal and it works fine until I press on the brake then the signal dims way down, the brake light flashes, and the back-up lights flashe as well. It gets even worse when the head lights are on. The right side works perfectly.
