Default Electrical Issues

Hi everyone! I hope someone can help me out. I am currently working on installing my guages and different swtiches in my center cluster. I am having a few issues. First, my fuel gauge is going straight to full and staying there. It is at the 3 o'clock position. I know the tank is not full so I do not know what to do there. I am trying my heater switch which is new, and it will not turn the fan on or anything. I tried the windshield wipers and they only work in 1 position and thats after the switch shocks me, so I am assuming I am grounding out that switch. Nothing is mounted yet, and everything is just sitting on the transmission tunnel by the shifter. Will mounting those things ground them out? Any help is appreciated.... Denn
