Default Problems With Lights

I have problems with my lights I installed new Si lights in 96 civic coupe and now whenever I press brake all four corner light up. Everythiong is connected like its suppose to. I just have no idea what it is i did change the bulbs in back so they're not amber just white, but I dont see a problem with that?

If you made no changes to the wiring and the wires aren't being pinched, then you obviously put the sockets in the wrong locations when you installed them. What happens when you use the turn signals or reverse lights?

Everything is fine when I use the turn signals but the thing is when I press the brake pedal all four turn signal go on they just turn on and not flash just hwen I press the brake pedal. I have no idea why.

it is possible that you have installed the light bulbs in backwards and they are lighting up backwards?

Did you keep the wiring harness that came with the 99-00 lights, or did you use your 96-98 harness? Because while it should be the same, you probably just put the wrong sockets into the wrong holes.
