Default Rear lights stays on when it's wet/raining

Hello!
I'm not sure what's the problem, but this is the second time that the rear lights of my 2006 xc90, stays on. The first time it drained the battery, prior I've noticed the problem. I'm assuming that it's a bad connection somewhere since it seems to happen only when it's raining outside, and I start getting all sort of warning messages (ABS, breaks, and engine service). I checked the ECM to look for water leaks, however, I haven't seen any water in that area. Does anyone have any idea what can be causing this problem?
Thanks!

I have had exactly the same symptoms since yesterday. My neighbour called me to say that my reversing lamps are turned on. I saw some water next to the lamp body. I think it got wet this havily rainy day and made a sort of short circuit that turned on the lamps. What was the solution in your case?
