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.
Think I came in on this thread late...........But!...........

When dealing with old LBC's and BBC's with Lucas fuses..............after 
20-40 years.........they can corrode inside.........they look great........but 
with a continuity check.......they are bad........and then maybe, even while 
checking,  the end just slips off in your hands.........Caveat:   NEVER TRUST A 
LUCAS FUSE MORE THAN 10 YEARS OLD...........or maybe never, eh?       
Oh!.......they can go at any time!...........just like.......... to confuse you 
or 
something........when you are working on something else 
electrical........<g>.....I've been bit by this...........more than 
TWICE........

Cheers!
