Did you recently replace that Bulb? You may have put the bulb in the socket incorrectly. Those are 1157 bulbs, the intensity of the filiments are different. If you try hard enough you can accidently put the bulb in the socket 180 degrees from what it should be. so you brake filiment acts as your Running lights and when you step on the brake, the Running light filiment lights.
The current is different from the Passenger side and your dashboard indicator light will come on.
