Electrical problem

When I was taking apart my dash to clean everything and paint it and i got to the headlight switch, i didnt realize that it popped right out until i went to put it back in so i snipped all the wires and then when i put it back together i spliced them all back to how they were. well thats when things went wrong. when i would pull out my headlight switch to parking lights and dash lights, no lights would come on. when i would pull it out once more to turn on the headlights, the headlights only would turn on---no running lamps or dash lights. so i checked the fuse, and it was blown, i put a new one in and as soon as i pulled out the light switch to see if it worked, the fuse blew right away. another note to mention is that when you pull out the headlight switch to turn on headlights, sometimes they dont come on, you have to flick the dash board then they come on. Is this a bad grounding wire that could be causing this or what could be causing this, i am so confused! please help!

Re: Electrical problem

If you're blowing fuses, you have a short somewhere. Double check the wiring, crossing the wires can cause this.
