My 70 Challenger right side brake lights aren't working. Left side brake lights work. All of the taillights work and the blinkers also work. I did replace the turn signal assembly a month or so ago. Checked the blinkers but I didn't check the brake lights. Not sure if this problem could be related to that. Also noticed that the reverse lights also stopped working . No power to the reverse light wire. So I'm thinking about staying
Checking that at the transmission.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

I've had a similar problem before. The first time, I didn't have the flat plug from the column fully seated. The second time, it was a faulty turn signal switch. In my case, just jiggling the hazard switch caused weird results.

if the right side turn signals work then the circuit is OK ,, the brake light goes through the same circuit so the power goes to the brae light switch & into the turn signal switch , the switch interupts the brake circuit to the right taillight . so the problem seems to have to be in the turn signal switch .
