This is gonna sound really stupid but I got save someone else the potential noggin scratchin and hair pulling. Sometimes for quite a while now, when turning, my dash lights would go out with a popped fuse. I tore the thing apart multiple times trying to find the cause and never did. I would button it up and it would be fine. Sometimes for days, sometimes thru the first turn. It turns out that when I changed my headlight bulbs, I got that little gray plug back there smushed in between the frame and the headlight bracket and when I would turn the bars to full lock to the left, it would pinch the two contacts together, shorting the dash fuse. DOOOOOOHHHHHH!
