The dash in my 97 Civic ex doesnt like to work right...
The light is on when the head light switch is in off. THis drains the battery like none other.
THen when the switch is turned to the "park" or "on" position the light goes off.
I cant see my dash when the lights are on!
If someone has had the same thing happen and knows how to fix it or has any ideas please let me know!
Thank you!

Have you done anything at any time to the cluster? Anything at all? I can see one of the things that happen but not the exact opposite.

Can't really tell you much over the internet but you definately have a wiring issue. Probably a major one and you are only noticing one of probably many problems
