HELP!! Evo 2 wiring problem

My boost gauge wasnt lighting up so pulled the wires out of it to have a look and now my sidelights are on all the time.

Any ideas?

well i guess ya boot guage was conncted upto the wiring for the sie lights so when the side light come on the light no the guage did.. maybe taknig it all out u left some bare wire and it touching metal or somthing..

i hate searching al lthe wires for somthing lik this can take bloody ages to find it..

as for the boost guage maybe the bulb has gone in it.
