Have you checked the fuses ? Both of those functions are fed by fuses that
could've gotten blown if you didn't get the connections right the first
time. The brake lights should not otherwise be involved with the light
switch.
If that doesn't turn up the problem, I'd suggest some troubleshooting with a
voltmeter or test lamp. Start by checking the red/green wire from the light
switch, which is the output to the marker lamps. It runs to the fuse block,
so next check the red wires on the other side of the fuse, and so on.
The brake light switch gets it's power from a green wire at the fuse block.

According to Dan's schematic, the brown wire should mate with a green/brown
wire that runs to the fuse block, and is used only to provide power to the
"flash to pass" function. Everything else should work normally with it
disconnected.
