Do you have working gauges (fuel etc- dummy lights) when the dash lights act up? How about the dome or courtesy lights?
I don't believe so. the main harness connectors can only be connected to their terminals one way. The only thing additional to the main harness is the aftermarket tach. That is receiving power from the acc terminal on the fuse box and it's light is plugged into the extra terminal found on the console harness connector.

The courtesy lights as well as the tach, console and HVAC lights function normally with key on. Basically anything on the grey wire is functioning normally.

I did not replace the turn signal harness when I replaced the dash harness.
