Hi guys, I've got a 1994 Rover Mini Sprite and when u went to drive it to school this morning I turned the headlights on and it caused all manner of lights to come on. The lights affected are the indicators (they come on permanently, not flashing), the indicator lights on the dash, the fog light indicator (on the switch, the actual fog light is not on) and the de-mister indicator (again on the switch, the actual de-mister is not on). Hopefully someone knows what the problem is! Was thinking maybe the earth?

A faulty earth is my bet!
Probably on the lighting circuit

Yes looks like a circuit is finding its earth another way through the other light circuits that are on
