Having some issues after installing Saleen rear fascia. I've got it all put in and wired up per the instructions but the third brake light doesn't work properly. When I plug it in, it lights up immediately. When I push the brakes, it turns off until I release the brake pedal, then lights back up. If I leave it for awhile, it turns off with the trunk light, and turns back on if I hit the trunk release button.

In addition to this, my dash display shows "trunk ajar" and I have to press reset it each time I get in the car.

It's not something stupid like having the trunk light wired into it, or anything stupid like that. I've checked and rechecked everything to my knowledge and ability.

Has anyone run across a problem like this, or have a clue what I can do to figure out what's wrong?
