Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.If you replace an ungrounded outlet with a grounded outlet, the tester should show an open ground indication. The left light will be the only lamp that will light up. Install either another ungrounded outlet or a GFCI receptacle..

Before you do any work yourself,

on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,

always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized

Why when you turn on the headlights the tail lights brake lights and turn signals go out on 94 Plymouth sundance and when you turn head lights off the brake lights work?

I believe it's a poor ground contact possibly within the switch itself. if your car is rusty look for external ground contacts and make sure that they are on clean shiney metal. If all looks good i'd replace the switch.
