Since you mention that I did have 2 bulbs that were blown camping world replaced with single element bulbs that I had to replace when I got home and seen those were bright and all others were dim.Did you see what my pics look like blurry or wet looking with very little color and if they don't look like that then they are so bright looking you can't see anything.Camping World had Rv all summer and didn't check it or monitor

This is what I suggest (beside the volt test I mentioned earlier). Pull all the red lenses from the rear Bargman lights - both sides.
Start the engine, turn on the parking lights and the emergency flashers as well as turning on the monitor and set for rear camera. Check the monitor for any "weird" behavior. Then walk to the rear Bargman fixtures and compare the the illumination of the bulbs. Any difference it light output should be suspicious. While there, add lighting load by having someone depress the brake - giving steady output to the bulbs (while emergency flashers are still on).
These Bargman fixtures are noted for allowing moisture to creep inside thereby corroding the lamps and sockets. When I changed to the Bargman LED I went for the hardwired version and did away with the bulb sockets. No other problems with any of my rear lights.
Keep in mind that the incandescent bulbs draw a lot more load (watts) than the LED so I would see a slight strobing of the monitor screen when driving lights and brakes depressed. The move to LED eliminated that problem.

You can call RVS. They may have some additional diagnostics that you can run on the multiplexer. It doesn't appear to be a voltage issue that would be causing your problem - at least within the rear lights. You could still have a voltage problem within the multiplexer but that is where RVS can provide technical advice.

Guess I'm stuck and better off at this point to let another service dept. suggested by FR try to figure it out and they can get tech support I don't have the tools to check voltage but I'm not interested in any Camping world doing any more work for me and I would never by an Rv from them again and would suggest others stay away also unless they know the current dealership personally you have shown more knowledge on this forum than the service manager and his supervisor I have been dealing with all summer Thanks bgilly

I had one replaced under warranty because of air leak.
