Default Brake Light Trouble, Has Got Me Stumped

Hey Guys and Gals,

Straight to the problem,

I have a 04 xtype 3.0,

My brakelights are completely fine when my running lights and headlights are off.

BUT, When i turn on the dial for running lights, the running lights work fine all of them in the rear are on as factory set,
its when i hit the brake pedal, the driverside tailight completly goes out, and the STABILITY dashlight and Foglight dashlight come on, when i let go of the pedal the foglight dashlight goes off, but the stability control dashlight remains on, and i cannot turn off the stability control dashlight by using the button by the shifter it just is always on.

A restart of the car, and the stability light is off.

When i have the headlights and running lights off, no lights come on on the dash when i press the brake.

Sounds like a short, but where do i start?

Had HID foglights put in about 2 yrs ago might be the problem?, changed all the backlight bulbs to rule that out.

Please guys help, hate to get pulled over.

Thanks ahead of time for your help, its much appreciated

-Dave
