Default 1996 a6 quattro really weird light problem

hi guys new to the forum, anyways

I have a really weird light problem that started I guess after I jumped off the car. The dash lights and the rear right tag light is staying on. I can not get them to turn off unless I unhook the battery?

Place give me any ideas what would be causing this problem? is the an lcm in these? or is it just a short somewhere?

Or can somebody give me the wiring diagram for the lighting system?

Sounds like a classic bad ignition switch, they cause many weird electrical issues. Lights on..starter engaging for no reason..Here is a how to from the tube.
