It sounds like the brake controller is picking up some of the current from the blinkers. Installing a Pulse Preveneter, part # 5501, should remedy the issue. A pulse preventer essentially filters out the fluctuations created by the blinkers so that only the constant signal of having the brake pedal applied will activate the controller. I have added a link to the part below.
