My LCD panels on the instrument cluster have been staying on even when the key is removed and the car is locked. I first noticed it a few days ago when I left the office and saw those lights on in the car. After a bit of searching, I decided to replace the electrical part of the ignition switch. It wasn't too bad of a job and I think it may have been done before because the screws were fairly easy to turn (no lock-tight) but the problem remains. So more searching. If anyone has thoughts on this, I'm all ears (and eyes!). Oh, and I noticed a jumper wire may have come loose while I was working in that area, now I have to remember what I had "upgraded" with a jumper... :-)
So, quick update - it turns out that if your odometer reset button is a bit sticky, it might not fully pop back out after resetting the trip odometer. A slight touch and it popped back out and my lights went off. Good thing I was thinking of replacing my ignition switch anyway.
