Default interior/exterior lights wont turn off

I just recently had my truck overheating and had to park it for a couple days til I could find out what the prob was (ended up changing the t-stat and radiator(previous owner had it plugged several times) and so far so good ). I had the battery disconnected til i was finish and now that its done, Ive noticed the third brake light stays on as well as the dome light and passenger door light, the doors are completely shut and truck is locked.

Any ideas?

I am guessing that the brightness adjustment wheel by your left knee is all the way up, which would engage your interior lights. When those are on, so are the lights on your third break light.

I've checked everything mentioned in the forum. Could it be a bad battery terminal connector.
