dash lights turning off when headlights are on

i have a set of jdm headlights, except i’m using the stock headlight bulbs. everytime i turn the running lights on, then the dash lights stay on. but when i turn the headlights on, the dash lights and running lights turn off but the headlight stays on. has anyone ever had this problem? i’ve checked the fuses and none are blown. i’m wondering if it has anything to do with the jdm’s or my gauge cluster? any input would be great thanks.

found the problem mod can delete

you should post your solution so the next person that has this problem can be helped.
