As the title says my lights are always on. I did an SR20 redtop swap. I have an 89 240. what i have done so far and noticed so far. Well i figured its getting power from somewhere its not suppose to. So i disconnected the brake switch connector and the lights shut off so i figured maybe its getting power from somewhere between the fuse on the driver side and the switch. So i pulled the fuse. the lights went out. So i guess its getting power somewhere between the fuse box and the battery. Is this thinking right? or does it come from something else. or am i totally lookin in the wrong place. I noticed that my right turn signal works normal speed and both front and rear work. But the left side the front one blink 10x faster than norm and not getting any thing at all from the rear one. Could these be linked? Thank u for any help

if you disconnected the brake switch and it went out that that means the switch is stuck or broken.
