Only wierd part is that mine used to come on with the key being on rather than the lights.. Theyd be on anytime the car was on

I know for certain! The ORANGE wire is the instrument, clock, radio, light wire fed via dimmer dial on light switch.
Have you replaced the mother board? I know the traces go bad like mine did..
A new board from classic industries and a new head light switch.
Fixed!
