When I tap on my brakes, my parking lights come on. Likewise, when my lights are on, it looks like I'm riding the brake. When I tap the brakes with my lights on, they get a little brighter, but not much. I know there is a problem, I just need to know how to find it and how to fix it.

The only way for that to happen is the brake circuit green wire and the tail light circuit red and black wire are shorted
