Default Bit of Emergency: Lost DS Brake Light

Hi everyone. I was working on how to fix the "stop Lamp" warning I'm getting since I converted to LEDs. I was trying to follow guidance on one of the threads by bypassing/pulling #6 & #8 female connections on the Bulb Control Module on my '79. I was unsuccessful but have a bigger issue. I put back the pins where they go and I no longer have the driver-side brake light. HELP!! I don't know what to do. I have a long drive tomorrow and would rather not be without a brake light. Sorry but @Alan or anyone have thoughts on how to fix this? Did I somehow "break" my Bulb Control Module?

UPDATE: I PULLED THE WIRING DIAGRAM AND WAS ABLE TO DECIPHER WITH MY LIMITED UNDERSTANDING TO FIGURE OUT I GOT 2 OF THE PINS SWITCHED AROUND. ALL IS GOOD NOW.

However, is there a way to bypass the "stop lamp" warning when the brake pedal is pressed on the '79?

The easiest and most easily reversed method is to just remove the dash warning bulb for it (brake light bulb warning only).
