I have thought a bit more about it. The ignition feed must be faulting... that would cause it to do EXACTLY what it's doing.

checked all the fuses and they were all working
the lights turn the orange line on the dash on and the indicators show up etc

basically wt subarino said is pretty much right ignition feed
actually repaired a bit of the tracks ont eh back (ignition ones they were marked as) when it was out and it got the stuff on the right back but didnt find nething else wrong

might have to pull ti back out then dismantle it and check all the tracks thorooughly adn see wt we can find

I know one screw i can remove on both your cars that will make the fan controls change the bringtness of your headlights... although u will never be able to turn the headlights off and your fan will always be running... ohh and the temp guage and fuel guage will always read HOT/FULL.

I had all these problems in the past.... took me a VERY long time to work out the problem and it was just a single screw causing it.
