Default Under dash wiring harness

Hi friends!

Just starting to restore a new 76 Silverado I bought. The wiring under the dash is a nightmare from the previous owner. While several things dont work(windshield wipers, parking brake light, volt gauge, etc) I have noticed that if I turn the windshield wiper switch on, the blinker lights in the instrument cluster, and the cluster back lights come on and stay on. Before I get deep into fixing all of the wiring, does anyone have any idea on what could be causing this?

I appreciate the help.

-Chris

They do make harnesses that are real nice and not to pricy
