It looks like you purchased and installed the LED Trailer Tail Light w/ Reflector - Stop, Tail, Turn - Submersible - 7 Diodes - Round - Red Lens # STL13RFHXB on a trailer. Typically when this happens it indicates a bad ground somewhere on the trailer, so you'll want to check the ground connection on the right side light, as well as any ground wire for the entire trailer.
This would be a great starting point for your troubleshooting, but if all of your ground wires are firmly connected to a rust and paint free spot on the trailer, let me know and I can give you a few other things to look at.
