Default Dyna electrial trouble

I just got a 2007 Low Rider yesterday from a guy and tonight I noticed the dash lights were on. Ing switch is off , if you hit either front or rear brake dash lights go off or hit the horn button they go off but they come right back on. When it started I pushed the reset button on the side of the dash and they have been on since. The only way to kill the lights is to pull either the main fuse or the battery fuse. Please help, any ideas
Thanks Clap

Sounds like a short.
Were the handlebars changed? pinched wire.

No bars were not changed. All I did was wash the bike after I got it.

I'm no expert on this, but I think you may have got a water wet connection. I always blow my bike off really good with a leaf blower after washing with special attention to the electrical. I would try that, good luck.

Got it fixed. It was water alright. Sprayed all the controls inside with electrical contact spray. Good to go. I always blow the water off with a leaf blower also but may have gone a little crazy with the hose. LOL Thanks guys
