Default Re: brake lights

If it wont come out of park unless you push the manual button, and then IT DOES come out when you have the headlights on then it could be the trailer wiring backfeeding thru the brake lights.
The trailer wiring could also be not allowing the brake lights to work since that signal runs thru it.
I would disconnect the trailer wiring and retunr the vehicle to stock and then see what happens.
Make sure the fuse is good.
Brake switches do go bad and can be the cause of the brake lights not working, but turning the headlights on points to the trailer wiring for me.
Just an idea
