Dash lights.....

Dash lights.....
Ok so i jumped my friends car to get it started and when i grounded to my frame for the jump i grounded to the alternator bracket and it made a spark i was like ok that's pretty normal well when we got everything going i turned on my lights and drove away only to realize that my dash lights weren't working and whenever i turned on my headlights the radio would shut off and turn back on. Well i replaced the fuse and when i turned everything on my dome light shut off the fuse popped to the dash lights and my dome light came back on. I know its a short to ground somewhere but i have no clue where to start looking because i don't wanna take my dash apart. Any ideas guys if no one knows im gonna ignore it until i put my new dash in but thats not for awhile.

I normally don't believe in coincidences.
This problem sounds like the headlamp switch has gone bad.
I'm looking at a 93 schematic, but all those items get power either bussed or switched at the headlamp switch. It's also a common failure item.
Verify that your chassis to engine ground strap is good too. May be located from the firewall to the block, near the wiper motor.
