"Clicking" Noise after installing brake controller

Hello All,
I just installed a Tekonsha Envoy into my 2008 Touareg using Nick's step by step directions.
I don't have the trailer yet to try it out, however, I hear a clicking noise whenever I press the brakes while in the park position. The noise is coming from the shifter console area. When I apply the brakes in D or R, no issues.
Anyone know what I may have done wrong or is this normal?
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Normal. You are hearing the shift interlock mechanism. It lock out the ability to move the shifter our of park unless your foot is on the brakes.

Thanks Chris.
The odd part is I don't recall hearing it before the install.
Oh well, guess my ears are now more in tune.
The Bambi should arrive in 7 days or so.
I'll post pics, etc.
Regards,
Eric
