The standard 1157 or similar two filament bulbs contain an upper (small diameter) filament for the parking lights and a lower (larger diameter) filament for the brake and flasher applications. The new LEDS operate from one diode.

Because something's wrong, of course. What it could be... bad switch, break/short in the wiring, bad fuse or relay, or even just bad bulbs.. chances are, your car uses dual filament bulbs for the brake lights, where they'll function as both marker lights (with one filament active) and brake lights (with both filaments energized).
