Our 04 suburban has had the dash lights on (and window power etc) after removing the key and opening the door! Replaced the ignition switch and lock cylinder, looked at ground wires on the frame, didn't redo any of them because we live in the NW; they didn't look rusty (but should I have anyway?) The problem is intermittent, sometimes the dash lights will go out after the key is removed and door opened, but usually we have to disconnect the battery every time we park, we installed a knife switch a few months ago. It also idles roughly and takes 3 or 4 seconds to start sometimes, I've always attributed this to the battery being recently reconnected and the computer having to relearn everything... in recent days the dash lights have been going out properly, so we haven't had the battery disconnected in several days, and the car still runs badly and no engine codes. Thanks very very much for any help! Ben

Really I need answers. I have zero clue on how to use this site. I recently overhauled my 4.8 vortec for my 03 sierra 1500. I hookerd every single connection up and went to crank and it clicks once and never tries anything again. No noises from starter or nothing. I have had some other issues too, a few select lights on my dash stay on after the truck is turned off completely and the key is out, specifically the brake light, seatbelt light and security light. The DTRL stay on too. Relay for the DTRL clicks when you switch them from high beams to low beams, the fuel pump relay clicks when switching from acc to on and a high pitch ringing can be heard from the passenger side of the engine bay. I'm really at a loss for what's wrong. Could it be that I pinched a wire? a bad ground? a short? every wire still has the protective sleeving. i also had the wiring harness wayyy out of the way when I put my engine back in.

I just bought a 2014 GMC sierra and the dash lights are a horrible red color. I know I've seen a similar dash on one of these post with a greenish blue color. Anyone know if its possible to change color? Thanks
