Default Rear lights will not turn off.

Hi.
I have a 200 Stype 3.0l V6. Recently the rear lights have been doing wierd things.
The rear and number plate lights have been staying on after the ignition has turned off. Also while driving the fuel tank gauge will go to empty and then go back to reading as normal...and the indicators will work slowly on the back and normal on the front.The rear fogs lights stay on as well.
If i disconnect the battery it resets and all work normally. Lights on the front of car working normally. No damp in the boot at all. Driving me slightly mad.
Thanks.

I think all of those functions involve the same electronic module, located on the right side of the trunk behind the side panel. I've heard of corrosion being found on the connector.
