It's a combined brake/flasher light, so the problem is a bad contact in turn signal switch. Cause brake signal goes through this switch to light up the lateral brake lamps. 2 switches, one for the left, other for the right.

While you're braking, try to pull the turn signal or play it up and down. It may light up.

I'm sure the problem is not in the wiring. Cause it flashes. It's the same bulbs.

About the park/head light, it may be a problem with the harness.

When you press the brake pedal, the yellow wire is hot for the left lamps.
When you turn on the park/head light, the brown wire is hot for the left lamps.

Replace the turn signal switch.
