could be taillights, lights in the back window, reverse light, turn signal, tag lights, or you could have wire short out. Could also have a terminal burned out in one of the bulbs. Have someone check to see if all lights up when you step on brake pedal. Sometimes everything will light up with the markers on only, but when brake pedal is pushed,, bingo one of those lit bulbs will not get brighter. If that happens then that's your target bulb.

Check your third braking light. Thats almost always the problem.
