Running lights stopped working (on a city street), when repaired, was due to a wire in the multifunction switch burning out and melting the casing of the mfs

Just had the instrument panel replaced due to a fried power transistor on the I/C board. Repair lasted about 1 hour and then replacement instrument panel failed also. Appears to be a short in the dash light circuit. This causes fuse # 15 to blow which removes power from the parking lights, and the tail lights.

2004 Dodge Neon lost head lights while driving late at night. Had there not been traffic in front and behind, I would have ran off the road. Multi function switch harness melted connector to multi function switch causing short to fuse 16. Prior to fuse 16 blowing, a melted plastic smell was coming from the column cover. Replaced multi function switch which showed signs of overheat (copper tarnished). While disconnecting the mfs harness, the connector was overheated (melted) and was falling apart. Both fuses (17 & 18) to the headlamps were intact so issue is inside the cab. I still need to have the harness connector to the mfs replaced.
