Default 93 Civic taillights problem

So it seems that my left taillight is messed up.

The blinker light (top) wants to think it's the brake light (bottom) and the brake light thinks it's the blinker light.

Has this ever happened to anyone?
They weren't like this a month ago, but I had some re-wiring done under my dash...But I don't really see how that would have to do with all the wiring in the back.
But then again, I don't know much about wiring..

Any help would be great!

Thanks.

well the wiring up front leads to the wiring in the back, so thats probably the problem, if you know where it was done at give it a check. If the factory harness was just put back together make sure the color line up

Ohh okay.

I'm trying to get a hold of the guy who did my wiring. I'm going to make him fix it with no cost.


My taillight sockets are different. =[
I wish it was as simple as that.

Thanks!
