Either the dimmer control is shorted to ground or the black-yellow wire going to the dimmer control is.

How do you know this you genius?!?

I'm assuming he means when the taillights are on. If they're on all the time with absolutely nothing else on, then he has bigger problems.

Did you mean cluster or the actual dashboard because all I can recall on my dash lighting up is just the air controls and the radio and what not. Can you be a bit more specific in location (for me at least)

yes on my cluster i have my check engine light, brake light,batter, all of them are on. and there is a light that looks like little pilars its orange on the top right of the cluster does anyone know what that is?? i mean i reset the check engine light so now tht one is off and it hasnt come back on so the engine is fine but all of the rest of the lights are on

Have you tried resetting the ecu by leaving the negative battery terminal off for a few minutes? That's what i would try if this happened to me x)

If all the warning lights are on than chances are you have a bad battery to body ground. Check to make sure that the ground is good.

ok thank you.....do you know what that orange light on ma cluster the orange one?

Low coolant in the overflow bottle. Sometimes a bad alternator can make all the lights stay on. Check ## grounds and fuses and make sure at idle with nothing on ## gettin at least 12.5 Volts. Should be 14.5 but sometimes at idle itll be lower

Sorry - by your first post I thought you meant dash instrument illumination lights.
Yes I agree check your grounds.
