Where did you tap into for power for the light? Sounds like you have things mixed up with the wiring.

Thats the issue I had a friend wire it up for me. But I don't get to talk to him often and see him even less so I was hoping I could just fix it myself if it aint that hard.

Tap into the radio light wire- that would be the easiest.

Or multi meter and find one of the dash lights power.
