Default brake lights dont work after alarm install....

i got my viper 791xv installed in december, and ever since:

my third brake light doest turn on,

my trunk lights dont turn on when i brake, they only turn on when i turn my headlights on (but dont get brighter when i brake)

so basically in the day time when i brake all u see is my two outer tails turn on. as oppose to all five.

is this a fuse problem or.......?

Can you take the car back to the people that installed it and have them fix it? I'm sure they'll know what's up.

if you got the remote start hook up, i would put my money on the brown wire from the alarm box to the brake wire. the brake wires is located just above the brake pedal, green/white wire. im pretty sure its either loose from the socket harness or its cut. i have been installing these for the last 3 years and i have seen it happen. parking lights come on, but no brake lights.
