Parking lights won't turn off!!! 2003 Saturn Ion - Kenwood BT308U

I installed a Kenwood BT308U with a Metra wire harness for my 2003 Saturn Ion. I soldered the wires (there was an orange, orange/white, black/white, and pink wire on the harness that did not *match up with the receiver wires) and it works great- Except my parking lights will not turn off when I turn the car off and take the keys out. When I unhook the wire harness, the parking lights go off.

What did I do wrong? Are these extra wires supposed to be hooked up to anything? How can I fix this? Please help!

Thank you in advance!!!

May want to look at your Orange and or Orange White wires and see if they are connected. I think they are your Light control dimming wires. Maybe if you could take a Picture and post it with how it is connected this could help some.

Please keep us posted to what you found the issue to be. incase others have the same type issue with like car

Hope this helps

Thanks for your replies! I had the loose wires zip tied together, so they definitely could be touching. I'll take the zip ties off and cap the wires to see if that does the trick.
