dash running lights electrical problem
instrument light fuse blowing Loosing running lights and dash lights. i have isolated short to dash area. i dont understand the relationship to the orange and green wires coming out of my light switch. The green goes to the fuse that is blowing and two grays go out to various printed boards but that fuse shouldn't effect the brown wire out of my headlight switch which handles the running lights front and back.

The flexible circuit board is a common issue in these cars, and cheap to replace. If your problem goes away when you unplug the gauge cluster, that may be a hint. I replaced one with burned traces.
