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? |

Honestly, I don't know if swapping 56a and 56b matters or not, but yours appears to be backwards from my functioning circuit. It's worth a try.

One wonders if the PO wired em backwards and if this is the source of the problems originally posted? I'm going to wire it the way it should be 56a white, 56b yellow. Thanks dood! D |
