did it come on instantly? if not then check ur brake fluid level may be a coincidence that u did tail lights and ur lamp came on for another reason.

so all rear brake lights have WORKING bulbs in them? if even one fails (open circuit) computer notices and hits the brake lamp light. check your quick connectors for your jdm tail lights. (maybe the light holder sockets are shorting or something

Pull the battery terminal and leave it off for a minute. See if that helps.

Also make sure both bulbs in the center high mount are working. Last time my Brake Lamp came on, I replaced one center bulb, and the other blew out a week later
