Ok, ive come across this before when someone has fitted incorrect bulb or correct bulb incorrectly in stop/tail light, it back feeds through side light curcuit.
Best way to determine if it is bad earth or short? Sorry don't know much about electrics.

I could explain but would take to long, take both your brake light bulbs out and see if it still does it, and check that it has the correct bulbs in both sides.

I had the same. Its the rear light bulbs. Change them for new ones. Could be either side.
