I have been driving for over a year without any issues with the lights. Tonight, they totally freaked out.
If I turn on the headlights, they keep popping up and down... and not at the same time. I have noticed that if you turn the dash lights down all the way, they stay up, so I drove home with no gauge lights. When you turn the lights all the way off, then the dash lights come on, and you cannot turn them off. Even if you pull the key, they still are on. I had to pull the battery out of the car to kill power. Is it just the switch? It worked fine yesterday. I drive the car almost daily, and it's never done this before. |

Sure sounds like the switch. First make sure it is properly grounded and all the connections are tight.
