Every time it rains I have a variety of electrical problems

Engine wont turn off when I turn off ignition switch
4 wheel drive light flickers
starter tries to engage while engine is still running
speedometer is either erratic or doesnt work at all
etc.

I have replaced ignition lock set and ignition switch doesn't help

when it is dry outside truck runs great

whats the problem?

The next time this condition exists, disconnect the wire connector going to the alternator and see if the engine dies and everything reyurns to normal except for "no charge". Let me know.
