If anyone has any insight it would be welcomed.

87 GT -
the pass side lights work...well thats the issue. They work for the turn signal, back up lights, and they DO work for braking. but if the lights are on the outside light (of the three main) and the corner light do not work, until the brakes are applied.

any thoughts

Symptoms like you're describing are often the result of a bad ground.

I remember hearing about a problem similar to this however, it was the reverse lights that didn't work. Seems there's a harness of some kind under the car below the transmission hump and the problem was there at that point.
