Left turn signal problem

When I turn my left turn signal on, my rear four ways come on and if I push on the brake it quits working all together. My right turn signal works fine. I think its a ground but, not sure which one or where to start. Thanks for the help.

Clean the grounds on the DS fender (under the hood).

Personally, I'd eliminate the trailer connector and take each tail lamp out, clean it and the sockets, reapply dielectric grease, and replace any burned out lamps. If the turn signal filament broke and shorted to the parking lamp, it could act like that.

I checked the trailer plug and it was hot to the touch so I am going to cut it out.
