after putting the motor and trans/exhaust all back in last night I was having a problem with the left side running lights coming on when the key was on. ie, key on equals left running lights on. I messed around, checking if the wires on the front bucket were messed up since I had taken that out last week sometime. What I discovered is, when the PO had the front side markers shaved, they left the two wires for the markers just bare in there. While this didn't solve my running lights on the left side issue, it solved the blown fuses issue. Now then, let's check these left side running lights.

So, anyone know why my front and rear left side running lights would be on with the key all of a sudden? lol.

Must be a wiring problem...

ya THINK??

Difficult to see from here, but that will happen if you leave your blinker on, left or right and turn the key off-- have you checked that???

yeah, turn signal switch is off...
