03 Durango- rear tail lights. All new bulbs. New housing. Reverse light doesn't work, blinker flashes fast when brakes applied (normal with brake not applied), with headlights on brake lamp only lights when brake actually pressed (should light up with headlights on). Any suggestions?

No, your brake lamps should only work when brake pedal is activated. Your headlamp switch shouldn't have anything to do with brake lites.
Sometimes if there is a faulty ground, your lamps may act weird?
Did I miss-understand your post?

SOURCE: 1997 GMC Sierra p/u. Brake light & blinker out. Lamp & fuse ok.

you probably got the wrong bulb
those are usualy a different number higher wattage, they look exactly like an 1127 but are a 2027 or even a 3027 check the bulb base it has the number printed on it

The tail light, brake light and the back blinker on right hand side is not working on my ml320cd 2008 also the brake light on the left side not working too

So your taillights should have 2 bulbs in them. 1 that turns on when you turn your lights on and stays on until you turn them off. That same bulb should have a 2nd circuit that lights up when you press on your brakes. The 2nd bulb appears when your reverse gear is engaged. So if you have no lights on right you have to replace both bulbs and if you have no brake light on the left you just have to replace your rear brake light bulb.

My brake lights and rear blinkers are not working. I have replaced the bulbs in both brake lights. What next?

most blinkers uses relays, and when they flashes fast one light is out, but you replaced your burnt bulb might be a bad relay.

My rear brake light is not working, nor is my blinker at the back right. When I put the right turn signal on it blinks really fast, faster than normal, and the front blinker works. I have replaced both...

Normally with the blinker blinking really fast, it's telling you that one of the bulb is blown, front or rear signals. Check your fuse, and fuse relay to see if it would fix the promblem

Rear brakelights dont come on fuses and bulbs are fine rear window brake light works

If the high level brake light works, then the brake light circuit is fully functional.

Brake light bulbs may LOOK fine, but can still have failed. Often folks don't notice that one bulb has failed until the second one has blown; it's then easy to incorrectly assume that the fault is more complex.

Try replacing the brake light bulbs: if that doesn't work then please report back for additional options.

Right rear blinker doesn't work. Brakes light comes at wrong time

You have a wire shorting out somewhere. Inspect from tail light forward. A test light will probably help you.
