Default Tail light problem

1995 Honda Accord EX Coupe.

I just replaced my taillights assembly. Now the light on the driver side won't light up when I turn the lights on.
It will light up when I step on the brake.

I don't see any loose wires.
Any help... Suggestions?

Thanks

OKay... So now the passenger side light won't light up when I turn the lights on.
It will light up when I step on the brake.


And now the Driver side won't light up when I step on the brake.
The Reverse lights and turn signals work on both sides

I really need some help

You did put in dual filament bulbs?
FYI the brake lights and taillights are 2 different circuits, as well as reverse lights and turning signals

Well, I used the bulbs that were already in the car.
So what else should I try tomorrow besides changing bulbs?

Reverse and turn signal lights work great.
Neither light will light up when I turn the lights on.
Passenger brake light will light up when I press the brake
