I have another post about this, but this was a secondary problem to my first problem of the headlight switch burning up(again).

I got new headlight switch. I drilled holes in the duct work last time. I cut wires off of plug one by one and crimped on insulated spade connectors, labeled them, and reconnected all to new switch. Everything works now, EXCEPT, the dash lights are always on. Had to pull fuse to get them off. Going to check wires again and pin positions.

This means that it is getting power from some where, either, wrong wire is on pin, wires melted/arc'd together, or new switch is bad.

I did have trouble with trailer plug the other day, about the time of the melt down, Could wires in truck side plug be shorting..................but that has nothing to do with dash lights.
What about a dash light relay sticking?

Anyone have any experience with this?

 

Never mind, wrong wiring. Got it taken care of,
