About two years ago I replaced the dash and switch panel at the helm. New one looks great, and everything seems to work just fine. however...
I noticed yesterday that there must be an issue or short somewhere in my wiring due to the following:
1) When the batteries are on and I flip the NAV Lights (also illuminates the back lighting on all gauges) to ON, without the key in "run" the trim indicator points to 50% , even though the drive is all the way down.
If i have music playing through the stereo, there is also a really quick subtle disruption in the music.
2) When I turn the ignition key to "run" the trim indicator reads correctly as all the way down, regardless if the nav light switch is on or off.
...thoughts of what to look at when I pull it back off? It's been 2 years since i've replaced the dash and I havent had any issues, so I'm also wondering if I should find time mid summer here to try to fix it, or if it can wait until winter.
