Lights, instrument, etc problem

Left tail light is not working suddenly on my car (no voltage in socket). When I use the turn-signal, the instrument-panel does bot blink, the light is always on. Also, when I turn the lights on, sometimes the compass and computer is turned of, and always the instrument panel lights are not so bright. When I turn the lights of, the instrument panel light is on normally again. Is this an earth problem, or what do you guys think?

When a turn signal stays on its because of an open in the circuit, usually a burnt bulb. Sounds like you have a wire connection problem if there is no current to the socket.
