Liam, make sure you haven't put a single filament bulb in a double filament holder if you have, the brake light circuit might be " feeding" the side light circuit!

take a look at the bulbs make sure the u have the right one in the brake light it should be a brake and side light bulb with 2 filaments if i has only one filament in it then it wrong bulb
