Gauge lights won't go OFF
1989 XJ 4.0 limited auto
Gauge lights and under dash lights won't go OFF. I changed the headlight switch and no change. It's not the door jam switches because the dome lights still go on and off when I press them. I even pulled the head light switch completely out and they stay on. Any ideas before I pull the dash out looking for a short. It's just the gauges and under dash lights not the dome lights.

Im no expert but why not trying to pull out the fuse and see if that turns it off?
Then you can start tracing the wires and even check the light switch, it could be defective
