Default I have a 1978 toyota corolla SE. When I turn on my lights both eliments in tail light bulb...

...light up. ? When I apply the brakes both of the elements in the brake light bulb light up. One Element is for the brakes the other is for the tail lights. What could the problem be?

First it could be the bulbs are bad and once you change them and it still does it maybe a wiring short

It could be a couple of things. First thing I would look for would be a ground problem. Check the wiring and ensure you have a proper ground. If everything checks out find I would guess you have a bad headlight switch.
