check the relay that controls the reverse lights, probably stuck on, or the switch or whatever

haha yeah my mom has those fog things on her volvo. I thought they were red so on the highway id turn them on to see people lay off the gas. Maybe they are white dunno haven't checked in a while.
No idea about the problem though seems like your wiring may have gotten screwed up.

couldnt see the pic that well, but that unused wire might be for the light that lights up the trunk. other than that, id check the wiring like you are doing. Good luck
