Let me get this straight (I'm not trying to be a smart a..s here).
1) The dash lamps work with the parking lamps on, but turn off when you go the one next step and turn the headlamps on?
* Multifunction switch (light / left side of column.
2) If the dash light turn on with the key, independent of the light switch, you most likely have a crossed wire / pinch in the dash thats powering up circuit. Radio Installation?
