1986 Ford Bronco V8 Four Wheel Drive Manual

I have a 1986 Ford Bronco XLT (which I just swapped out the tranny from an AOD to a manual) and my dash lights staying on all the time, even when lights are not on. Using the dimmer for the instrument/dash lights turns them down, but they're still draining my battery overnight. Need to find a detailed wiring diagram that shows the wires at the light switch because the previous owner cut, spliced, and rewired the from the harness to the light switch. All other light functions appear to be correct (headlights, brake, tail, turn, parking)
