Weird short after dash change 200 1992

I found a crack free dash and a small clock to upgrade the 92 sedan. I changed out the dashboard and all went well-or so I thought. I didn't use the headlights at all but last night I drove it and when you turn on the headlights lights, there are no dash illumination lights and the dash arrows light up and the tachometer loses about 500rpm. using the emergency flashers causes the dash center console illumination lights to flicker in sync. and the tach needle dips. I have a short but I can't figure out where.I have unplugged and re-plugged various instrumentation, the clock connector and tach wire, etc. Help! I drive a lot at night and need my dash illumination lights. Thanks in advance, Greg
