I was gonna say you probably ran it low on blinker fluid, but it's the brake light so....

Try the newfangled 1157/1156 led bulbs . They are screw in with no b/**** involved and shine like my babes *** . Put a little white grease on before you insert them and they will last forever.

Get a SMD bulb. Much higher resistance to vibes and abuse. Also brighter.
