96 Bonneville no dashlights -

I checked all fuses, & I have one parking light that works the others probley needs bulbs. Something strange ichecked the fuses with a meter put one prong on one fuse & another on another fuse& the meter went all the way up, is this normal?Wite this dashlight, may be bcm, or lamp monitor, dont know were anything is, is there a book that tells you, tried libary, no help

I turned the dimmer on the headlight switch itself & nothing, how about the dimmer switch by the ignition switch that turns the lights from bright to dim, could this be a problem

I have a volt meter, if thats not it, tell me what I need and will get it

Yes

Everything works except the interior lights stay on all the time pulled fuse for that, it was like that before the dashlight problem & when I pull the fuse 6c for parking lights the bell keeps dinging with no keys in ignition till I shut the door, the cluster is still in should I pull it next

I know the dashlights work I pulled the headlight switch out and jumped the connector and the dashlights came on hooked switch back on nothing

On the headligt switch connector, I put awire in j-brown, then I touched every wire, and g- dk brown, e-orange, d-yellow, a-red all made the dashlights come on. Touched r-tan/black and the radio dimed and was clicking somewere behind the radio

On the headlight switch conector, I ran awire from j- light brown to d-yellow which is the headlights, and taped it up, put the switch back on and everything works good, ok for a 96
