I think you all are going to tell me bad ground, but here goes.
90 ranger, 93 ex complete wiring harness and dash and 4.0.
the problem: truck running- gauges operate normally, turn on head lights and the volt gauge pegs left or neg. and dash lights don't work. turn on blower fan and volt gauge does the same, but now the turn indicator lights both come on and the dash lights will fluctuate with the turning of fan switch with the headlights on checked voltage at battery and its 14.3 all the time while switching different things on ( and volt gauge pegs left/neg..
so if its a ground, which one. the 4.0 swap has been flawless and everything functioning normally for 2 1/2 years now.
the only thing different in last month is I hadn't hooked up dome lights or door switch lights, but that was just plug them in and go.
So any and all help is appreciated, thank you.
