Third brake light not working after replacing

Hello everyone, today I replaced my old original broken third brake light with the Dorman replacement. I have a 2013 135i which does not require any modification to the replacement part or grinding off a metal tab as it’s a late model and doesn’t have any tabs.

After replacing the brake light, it did not turn on when pressing the brake pedal, so I had to reopen the trunk liner and remove the light to make sure it’s connected properly (and it was). I tried putting back the original brake light to check if that one works, and it didn’t.

Any idea what the problem could be? I’m pretty sure it was working before I started the replacement job.

Any help would be appreciated.
