Solved...kind of.
So, I've searched on here to try to find an answer, but can't seem to find it.
Today a buddy from work called me while driving behind me to tell me my taillights were out, but the 3rd brake light on the tailgate was working.
Here's what I've checked so far:
- Bulbs are fine; they light up when headlights are on
- All fuses are fine
- I replaced my multifunction assembly (turn signal) a few months back with a brand new one
- As I said, 3rd taillight illuminates fine
- I pulled the connection to the BPP and had 12v from pin5 to ground
- Used a wire to jump pin5 and pin4 on BPP, and still only the 3rd brake light came on.
What else can I check?

But didn't understand where the connector in the last step is.
I can try a new BPP switch, but if it were bad, wouldn't that mean the 3rd light wouldn't light up either?!
