Well it sounds like you wired up your tail light converter wrong and should be able to fix it by rewiring it.
I attached a set of installation instructions for you to check out, but basically the white wire will be grounded, the brown wire be run to the tail light circuit, the yellow goes to the left turn, the red to the stop light circuit and the green to the right turn circuit.
