From the sounds of it you have a short somewhere in that circuit.
Start by examining the the rear light clusters for signs of verdigris, that's the green stuff caused by water ingress.
Next is to get into the brake pedal switch. Check that the wiring is in good condition.
Finally, check the solenoid wiring.
My money would be on the brake pedal switch.
Hope this helps,

I wouild measure the circuit resistance to ground with an ohmmeter, then apply Ohms law to see if ithe resistance is less than the fuse current. Assuming the fuse is 5 amps, 12/5= 2.4 ohms, so you are looking for a resistance less than 2.4 ohms, either across the solenoid, or from the circuit wire to ground (with the fuse removed to isolate the circuit).
