Default cc/electrical problem

95 sc400, when I turn on the lights, or they auto come on the cruise control let's go but light on dash stays on, also don't know if this is related or not but when I push the brakes the parking lights come on, just recently got car so don't know much about them yet. Has aftermarket tail lights, heard bad grounds could be the issue, any ideas?

What year car do you have? and the year of the tailights? Sounds like a ground issue in the lighting department or maybe in the engine bay going to battery. Remove the taillights and see if it clears up.. Just a simple start.
