Electrical Gremlins, Headlight switch related? Options

[scoobykvn]

I am having some issues with battery drain. When my battery is hooked up and headlights off, some of my gauge lights are still on. When I turn the lights on they swap (on turn off and off turn on). I tried another switch I have and it does the same thing. If I unhook the ground cable on the battery and leave the pos cable on, the gauge lights on previously are still getting a small amount of current (I can see a dim glow). If I unhook the blue and black wires from the headlight switch the lights go off. Anyone have any ideas?

So I did a little checking today but did not have too much time. What I noticed is this; With battery connected but headlight switch off, at least the 3 center console gauges had lights on, not sure of the dash lights because bulbs could be out. The wierd thing that I noticed was when I disconnect the 2 sets of black/blue wires for gauge lights from the head light switch, the lights go mostly out but still have some current going to them because they have a slight glow. When I take those 2 sets of wires and touch them together, the bulbs turn bright like before. This is when I ran out of time.
