I got in the van today and started her up with no problems. Then I noticed that when I turn the headlights on, the lights on the dash didnšt come on (speedometer/clock/etc.) but my vdo meters (they all usually go on together) did come on. When I truned the headlights off, the vdo lights go off as usual. I checked the light level wheel and turning it down turns the vdošs down but does nothing to the regular meters. Now for the stranger part. When I shut the van off, I noticed that the regular meter lights came on, but turned off once I turned the headlights off.

I should mention I live in SoCal and itšs been raining like crazy. Not that Išve seen water int he van, but you never know.

Any ideas?
