You've got the bulb in the wrong way, or the wrong bulb type.

When you turn on the blinker, I bet it is shorting out the park light circuit and back feeding through the brake light filaments. So alternatively when you turn on the lights, the park light line now puts 12 volts onto both sides of the indicator filament in the dual filament bulb in the front which = 0 volts across the bulb.
