    You sure you got the right switch? One is normally open, one is normally closed.

    They have tiny writing on them, starting with no or nc, for normally open and normally closed. Followed by some numbers. One is the low air warning buzzer, kicks in at 60 lbs. other is brake light switch, kicks in when 5 lbs if pressure is applied.

    I’m thinking you got the wrong low buzzer switch, when you needed a brake light switch, maybe, causing brake lights to stay on. Maybe if you pump brakes down , below 60 psi, brake lights will go off. Lol. Just an idea.
