Electrical issues

[latemodel39]

Hey guys,
I have a 96 P/S I'm having trouble with. When I turn the headlights on I don't have any tail lights, dim and slow turn signals and brake lights, and when I turned them off the front running lights, amber, stay on. I have to pull a fuse out for them to go off. Anybody have any idea's what to check?

check the back side of the headlight switch , could be melted , that would be my guess , they were bad for that

You go scuffy, In my short career I have even seen that. I agree with the scuffster!

Put another headlight switch in and there's still no change. Checked the light harness under the bed and stll does same thing. Any other ideas?

gotta be a wiring problem , in which you already know , i guess you have short or bad ground somehwere then ,was the connector melted on the back of the headlight switch at all, you know how electrical problems can be , it would be impossible to diag over the net
