I just installed nu image gauge cluster-need help

Ok I installed the flame nu image gauge cluster overlay and now my front signal lights and rear taillights stay on when I get out of my truck for about 15 min. Everytime I remove my key and set the alarm. How do I get it back to normal? Do I have to remove a fuse or something? It's draining out my battery now so I need to get this fixed. Anyone know?

No just disconnected the headlight fog light connector, air bag connector and the odometer connector, installed the gauge overlay and plugged everything back in. I even tried to remove the battery cables off for 1 min and plugged the battery back on and still nothing. Is there a fuse or relay I should pull out then plug back on again?

Re: I just installed nu image gauge cluster-need help

stupid question but are your parking lights on? like the dash switch?

now how do the flames light up? do they wire into anything? is it just a overlay?

i cant see how removing a cluster then plugging the same one back in will cause this issue...i have taken my cluster out many times...

The switch is all the way to the bottom. I wonder why my lights stay on. How do I turn my parking lights off?

Re: I just installed nu image gauge cluster-need help

just a quick thought, when you arm/disarm your alarm, do your parking lights flash? If so it could be possible the relay responsible for this is sticking in the on position therefor keeping you lights on

damn I always fvckin forget to mention if someone has anti-theft!
such a good idea, 90% chance that's it.

btw battery has to be disconnected for 20 min for ecu to reset/codes to clear usually

Re: I just installed nu image gauge cluster-need help

Ok, I'll try disconnecting the battery for 20min. But if that does not work, which relay is it so I can pull it out to reset it. It is anti theft staying on longer for some reason.

Re: I just installed nu image gauge cluster-need help

Is it an after market alarm or stock? or do you just have keyless and it flashes when you hit lock? if it is the relay it will have to be replaced, no restet on those, but they aren't expensive

Yes it's stock just keyless entry, which relay I'd it in the fuse box in the engine compartment? Now my lights don't even flash anymore, they just stay on. And also the beeping sound stays on like if my door is open, or if like I left my lights on. But then they go off on they're own after about 15 min after leaving the truck alone. Anybody help me out?
