The dash lights on my bike are staying on even when the key is off and out. Any ideas?

Time and use would cause it to fail. I don't have a diagram for that year model so I can't say which wires would cause the problem. Don't quite understand what you mean by the pink wire turning them off and making them operate normally. If you disconnect the wire and they go out then they should not come back on with the wire disconnected. will it still start with the pink wire disconnected?

Once it is disconnected, they go off and the switch returns to normal operation- e.g. When the key is turned to on it starts, etc.

Can't push the switch and to the left, to the lock position, either. Feels jammed.
