battery draining/wiring problem?

[crookedcop7]

I just finished my swap (black top early) to 89 240sx I put in a new battery and the 180sx cluster

when I turn the key from off to on 3 times the cluster lights stay on even after the key is removed also the blinkers will work (it doesn't happen on my friends swap) appox. 8 hours later the battery is dead

tried disconnecting the engine harness/ checked the dio/ pulled a bunch of relays pulled off the turbo timer and found that the lights on the cluster turn off when I pull the blub check relay

In a little bit I'm going to check to is if the battery is still being drained upon

any help is appreicatedso PLEASE helpthanks adam

I am having a problem with my dash warning lights staying on after I take out my key and I trie disconnecting every thing i can imagine....every plug from the engine harness and every relay in the 2 fuse/relay boxes in the engine bay. I even disconnected the dash plug going to the ecu that we usually wire up for the SR swap.

It seems to keep me able to turn the turn signals on and stuff. I even tried making the lights stay on .....then disconnecting the ignition key cylinder harness (6 pin plug) and the lights remain on. I even took of the connection to the alternator (power, ground, 2 wire plug) and it still remains a problem

HOWEVER. When I took out the junction box in the driver kick pannel and i Turned it around and took out the blue little 4 pin relay. It made the problem go away......but I dont want to resolve it like this. I want to get down to the problem and solve this correctly. I even tried taking out the diode pack from behind the radio......I am soo stumped and I know it has something to do with the circuit involving the bulb check relay..........I tried testing the relays by adding power and ground on each one to posts 1 and 2, and they click and make continuity......I am soo stumped. Somone please can help me I will paypal them 10 bux!!! hahahah
