Default Lighting Q for you guys

This may be a weird question, but I figure one of you guys would know. When my lights are turned off, I get this little blue light in the dash. When I turn them on, the light in the dash turns off. I found it was quite odd because usually in other cars this little light turns on when you have your high-beams on, and I know for a fact that the high-beams are not turned on. Is there something wrong with my wiring, or is this normal on these cars? Thanks.

Is the little blue light the high beam light? Or is it just a regular little light?

It's the high-beam light. Is there another one? Here's how mine works:

All lights off = little (high-beam) blue light on
Parking lights on = little (high-beam) blue light on
Headlights on = little (high-beam) blue light off

daytime running lights.

they are the same as highbeams, but only at like 7-8 volts. therefore when the e-brake goes down, the dyaytimes come on automatically. the faint blue is teh Highbeam indicator gettting only 7 volts.
