Wired as described but button off is not cutting power

I wired this button up in both illuminated and non illuminated mores, with and without chassis (battery) ground. At first the button is dim as expected. After I use the button once then turn it off, it stays lit and it doesn't cut power. I don't understand how or why, but there are no instructions and I'm not an electrical engineer. I'm just a guy with a multimeter that wants to put a switch in place of the 2005 Subaru "test connectors" that simple complete a 12v circuit to let the ECU know it's in test mode. With this button engaged, the car still didn't detect a connection. The diagram provided on this page doesn't seem to apply to cars I guess?

Pros

The switch is waterproof, making it an ideal choice for use in marine environments. You can be sure that it won't get damaged when exposed to water, ensuring your boat stays in top condition for longer

Cons
