Default tail light sensor comes on!

earlier 2day i pulled out my tail lights and pulled out that disgusting yellow piece in the turn signals....anyways i took off all the connectors and then when i was done i reconnected everything. i start the car and it was fine then when i pressed the brake pedal, the little "break light" sensor came on, then i let go of the brake & it went off. i pressed the pedal a few times untill it stayed on steadily. none of the bulbs are out though! so any know why this is happening? maybe i did something when i took off the sensor connector? doubt it! thanks for the help

that is weird. mine brake lamp light comes on and stays on because i installed led brake lights and they read differently but i dont know why yours would be doing that after only removing a peice of plastic.

that shouldnt be something that would cause the light to come on, because that has a filament ( led's don't and that is what caused my brake light to come on ), but maybe that will make it go off. if not and your lights work fine just wait for it to burn out, thats what im doing
