Did you verify the bulbs are the correct ones? It may be the left front is actually dim and you're using the wrong wattage bulb. My rear lights are grounded on the back of the light housing. Bad idea. I rewired all the rear lights to a ground wire on the body. I have one already behind the right rear light. The back up light issue may be a poor connection on the backup light switch on the ZF.
