Question Need some LED help..brake lights not all lighting up

I recently purchased the rest of the LEDs I needed to replace all exterior lamps and interior lamps except for the headlights(HID) and fogs(soon to be HID). I replaced the brake light lamps and had an odd issue. Only one of the two brake lights per taillamp lights up. Different configurations were tried but only one lights up. Could the LEDs not have enough pull to light them both up? What can I do to fix this?

Naturally, when I attempted to use the turn signal, I got the solid arrow because one of the lamps is not on. I do have electronic flashers replacing my thermal turn signal and hazard flasher. The clusters I bought for the brake lights look like they will def be bright enough so I want to get the other one firing to make a final judgement. BTW, my taillamps use 3057 lamps and this issue only came up when replacing the taillamps. Everything else including the front turn signals/DRLs work great

Thanks
