Okay after cleaning the fuses when I jump the W/R to the red I"ve got good lights, add in the green which was loose and I've also got running lights.With the W/R where it belongs and the red disconnected. I've got good power at the out from switch half of the red wire until I connect it to the other half of the red wire, I have the tester connected to a hole in the casing and the second I hook up the wire it loses power. for now I might wire up a toggle. any clues based on that?

which wire is the dash lights?

Well after fiddling with stuff for awhile the switch now with turn them on when I turn it all the way, I'm not gonna bitch. I still don't have dash lights when I flick the switch, I need to figure out which wire it is and I might just rewire the whole damn mess with new connectors.
