Default Cluster smoked after wiring wrong wires

Ok the other day I attempted to get my parking lights working and thought all I had to do was connect the red and black wire behind the radio to the 12v power on wire for the radio (yellow/red)
Which is also hooked up to my dash dimmer wire(red) unfortunately I was wrong and when the car turned on my dash started smoking from the cluster and the turn signals slightly lit up idk why but now I got everything to work including my Running lights which so happened to be a small light fuse. Now my turn signals still work along with hazards and running lights but on the cluster the turn signals stay lit when I turn my car on why is this? And how can I fix it?

In the picture my dash lights were actually already on but if I turn my headlights on at night my dash lights go off and the turn signals will continue to stay lit as shown
