weird problem with dash

Yesterday I was driving on the expressway and everything was fine. Then I noticed that my right blinker was constantly on. I then noticed that my amp meter was at dead zero. I thought my alternator had died or something. Then I noticed my oil pressure was at dead zero and my RPMs were at full redline. Then I found out that when I turn off the headlights or turn off the dash lights everything works correctly again. I am guessing that there is some sort of short going on in the light circut. But other than that the car runs fine. If anyone can help I would apriciate it.
Thanks
