All Brake lights are dimmer than normal because high resistance in the brake switch could be the cause according to Technician B.

Explanation:

According to Technician A

When the bulb is faulty then no current will flow through bulb and it will be open circuit. So no light will produce in bulb.

According to Technician B

When a high resistance inserted in series circuit the voltage across each resistance is reduced and this cause the light glow dimly.

Formula of resistance in series circuit

Rt=r1+r2+r3 ...
