Reverse Sensing System (RSS) Problems

Problem started (probably coincidental) after replacing the multi-function switch on my 2002 Excursion. The dash switch "off" indicator remained light from the moment the vehicle was put in reverse. I noticed the reverse lamp was not functioning and replaced. Now the RSS will function properly as long as I apply the brake, but as soon I release the brake the RSS "off" indicator illuminates and the RSS system is non-functional and subsequent applications of the brake toggles the RSS system. Any suggestions?

maybe a short somewhere? Does the RSS system engage if the truck isn't in reverse but the brake pedal is depressed?
