I've been putting a stripped 306 back together and I've run into a strange one. My park lights, faciea lights and tail lights all come on with the ignition both acc and on.

I would have assumed an earth fault somewhere but I've checked the one under the dash and the common brown plug behind the fuse box

Phase 2 for anyone that has ideas?

Tried a different stalk for the lights? Wondering if the switch is at fault

With the stalk unplugged problem still persists, so it can't be a short within the switch?

may well be a Scandinavian import model with a wiring mod.

Incorrect window switches try unplugging them and see if that sorts the problem ? Had a similar issue years ago

Good guess mate! It wasn't so much the wrong plug but according to wiring diagrams etc, the loom had an extra brown low gauge wire which I couldn't make out the number on but as soon as I isolated that wire and plugged everything back in it still worked but my park lights were off!

So no idea what that wire is for but I haven't run into any problems since apart from my fuel pump not priming but I think that's a different gremlin
