I emailed about this before and still can't get to the bottom of it.
I have an 82 1.6 diesel and I'm having a weird electrical problem.
When I turn the engine on, the panel lights all go off.  Now if I
turn the engine off, but leave the key in one or two clicks, the
panel lights turn on.  I took the switch out, dismantled it, cleaned
it, and finally got it back together, but no change.  I've also
checked the grounds and they seem good.  Anyone have any other
thoughts?  I'm stumped.
