Default new short shifter

installed it last night - the stratmosphere hypershift - I absolutely love it... buuut one strange thing coming to work this morning... my e-brake light came on while driving and beeped... it happened twice while I was cruising around 40/45... then went off and that was the end of it... so this is what my hunch is... when installing I had to remove the factory insulation over the shifter... some of which extended waaaay back under the e-brake in the center console... well not way back... but 6-inches plus, so my question... I noticed a bunch of wires running back through the console... is there some sort of sensor on the brake handle that I maybe could have screwed up when pushing the insulation back in?<ul><li><a href="http://www.stratmosphere.com/hypershift_short_shifters1.htm">http://www.stratmosphere.com/hypershift_short_shifters1.htm</a</li></ul>
