Why are my brake tail lights staying on while I'm driving and going off when I step on the brake pedal?

My brake tail lights stay on while I'm driving and when I step on brake pedal they go off, and within seconds they go back on again. I have a 2006 Chevy Malibu. Do you know what is causing this problem?

One thing to check is the grounds at G401 and G403. http://i1198.photobucket.com/albums/aa448/Wrenchtech/126227361.gif
