So my 2002 cyclone was just fine before I drove it in the rain. After the rain, the tailight, odometer, and dash lights don't shut off at all even with the key out. Now I just disconnect the battery eveytime I stop. What did I fry and what should I do?

Thanks all advice is really appreciated

Do your stoplights, horn and directionals still work also it may just be the ignition switch.

With the key switch off the red wire will have voltage but the red/gray (acces) and red/black (ign) should have zero volts.

The red/gray wire does have voltage when the key is out. The red/black one doesn't. My blinkers work and my horn does too when the key is out. Is it my ignition switch?

If the key is out and you have power to the red/gray it is the ignition switch. That's why the accessories still have power.
