Okay here's the deal. Everytime I turn off my car, all the lights in the gauge cluster still stay on. I have to disconnect my battery everytime. Someone help?!

Wow. If i had a problem like that I would probably sell my car and get a new one. Just kidding. Wiring/Electrical problems scare me. Have you checked all your fuses? could be a short or crossed wires in the ignition wiring, possibly causing the power to stay on after the key is pulled out. try pulling off the steering column cover and checking all the wires, if thats possible- never done it b4. Good luck.

Okay I figured out that my negative cable going to the battery was corroded so i just replaced it. Now it's back to normal. =)
