Default Installed Brake controller on 06 CT!

Thanks to ITC and Wingless for their help and knowledge on installing a brake controller.
Based on the info I got here on Rennlist I decided to do it myself. After reading a few success stories and hearing how easy it was I went for it.
The soldering job wasn't steller however I got it done and it looked decent.
Semi long story short I got the Drawtite solid state unit in and everything seems to be working. When I press the brake pedal the LED lights up.
I don't have the trailer yet but hopefully I will pick it up it later this week.

One strange thing I noticed after the install was when the CT is in park and I press the brake pedal I hear a clicking noise right around transmission (gear selector). However, after I put the CT into drive and press the brakes no noise or clicking whatsoever.
Anyone heard of this?

Thanks,

John

The clicking is the gear selector lock that keeps you from taking the transmission out of park w/o the brake depressed.
