Have you checked all the bulbs? Check all of them!
Check the fuses too.

After that, inspect the wiring, see if there's any wire exposed that is making contact with something that it shouldn't, anything melted?..

Also, Did you turn the switch to off on the left side of the steering column? I did that once without realizing I had to make two small turns to turn all the lights completely off. Maybe the switch is dirty and is getting stuck in the 1st position? You may also check for a relay under the hood or in the interior fuse panel that may be stuck.

It's possible the stalk's relay is bad.

Most likely the ICM is failing. Its the brown box on the dash fuse box.
