Alright so my problem is with the corner lights and the tail lights. without the key in ignition i have control of all three settings with the headlight switch (OFF, (dash,corners, tails), and then all exterior lights). but my problem is when i put the key in and turn it to ACC II, for the radio, all the lights that would be controlled by the first notch come on. i've taken out fuses and it still does that with the fuses out. i dont know but when the car was stock it did not do this. any help would be great. thx

You need to think what you did prior to the problem....install a new radio? Hooked something up backwards? Think man....

You said that it didn't do it when it was stock. What isn't stock? Might want to start there as the modifications may be causing this.

new radio, reverse indiglo gauges, and a couple toggle switches to control interior leds. thats all i can think of that could be the problem.

basically you wired something wrong when you did all of that
there is no easy way to do it you need to start tracing back wires and checking how everything is hooked up and make sure there is no wires touching, bare wires, wires grounded out etc
