I started my car tonight and noticed despite the headlight switch being fully in the off position, my dash lights are on and my license plate light is .
Odd. Never saw that before. Headlight switch I imagine.... Thoughts? David Addedum-and saw what I thought was a wisp of smoke come from under my dash at the windshield....perhaps my imagination? |

Remember that 53a goes to both your wiper motor and the fresh air blower. 1.9 ohms seems an OK reading to me. If the spare that tested OK on the bench does not work in the car, I would investigate that wiper switch.
