My interior lights wont turn off, I had to pull the fuse to get them to turn off. Also the fuse seemed very warm.

Any Ideas?
Thanks:)

I am betting it is in the headlight switch.
Try to unplug it and then see if your lights stay on.

Are you sure the panel dim switch isn't full on? It could also be a faulty door jamb switch.

Its a good thing you ask, its always the simple stuff, but no its not on.

ill try that:)

Ill also add that my speedometer is all over the place when the car is sitting at a stop light, or basically just not moving. The speedometer is fine when the car is rolling.

It could be a bad ground for the instrument cluster? Do you have the factory EVTM? It's worth its weight in gold for electrical issues. I highly recommend getting a used one from eBay or maybe Amazon or getting a new one from Helm Inc.
