sounds like you just wired it up as colours ! if old red and black coloured ,one of your black wires is switch wire and needs to go to positive side of light, probably best to use electrician so correct wire is used ,or chance of blowing fuses in main board .

It sounds like you've missed the switch out of the circuit.
