Can't turn off headlightsb,no dash lights,no tail lights

Asked by Roht Sep 18, 2020 at 02:46 AM about the 2004 Ford F-150 XL

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I go to turn my truck on and notice no dash lights.
Then I could not turn off my headlights. Then I get
pulled over for no tail lights. I have to disconnect
my ground cable to turn off headlights. They stay
off when I reconnect the ground cable and I'm able
to turn them on with the switch but not off. My
dimmer light works but no dash lights. Brake lights
work but tail lights won't come on? Thinking it's the
headlight switch but it will turn the headlights on
but not off. Please help.

No sir no luck still driving it with trailer lights i rigged up on it and straight to the battery with two toggle switchs to turn them on and off. I just pull the two fuses for the headlights. Possibly the switch but i cannot find one anywhere. I have called every junk yard in wisconsin and Minnesota and no has one. Unless i wanna spend upwards of $ 150 at O'Reilly's for a switch that may not fix the problem. . its not a multiswitch. If i figure it out i will hit ya up on here and shoot u that info for sure.
