Glad you found the issue! Good thorough grounding practices can never be over emphasized, especially during assembly.

Not all electrical problems are grounding problems, but 90% of electrical problems are grounding problems.

One trick while sorting out or pin pointing the issue is to use a long jumper wire with alligator clips, go directly to your battery neg post and then ground the problem at its end result. if the problem goes away then start back tracking.

I also use on good clean grounding surfaces, bulb socket bases etc. Dielectric grease it helps keep out dirt, moisture and oxidation...good stuff!
