try the brake light switch on your brake pedal. mine was doin the same thing and the brake light switch just needed adjusted. have a buddy pull out on the brake pedal n see if they go out

If your brake pedal swich is to far out it will cause them to stay on look under your dash at your bake pedal and you will see it just push the swich towards the front of the truck.

I just went out and checked and no luck.I had to pull the lights out to keep from running the batteries down.
