Ignition on = Stalk controlled lights off.

I bought one of these here stalks

Which has instructions in the catalogue with the pinout:

(fly)Green: Flasher Relay
(fly)Green/Red: Flasher Relay
Twin Green: Ign +
Brown: Perm +
Purple: + to Horn
Green/Red: Left Ind
Green/White: Right Ind
Blue: Feed from HL switch
Blue/Red: Dip +
Blue/White: Main +


I have tied it to a premier loom (instructions here) like so:
Flasher Relay: Black/Yellow
Flasher Relay: White/Back
Ign +: Red/Black
Perm +: Red/Blue
+ to Horn: (not used)
Left Ind: Black/white
Right Ind: Black/Green
Feed from HL switch: (batt + for testings)
Dip +: Brown/Yellow
Main +: Brown/White


Anyway, it all works fine until I turn the key at all, so I assume I've done something stupid. Any ideas before I fall down a rabbit hole?

Is the perm live you connected the (brown) wire to actually staying live?

Turns out the issue was my relays were set for switched earth, instead of switched live.
