Default 99 Aurora exterior lights on continuous

The only way I can shut the lights off, is by pulling the plug on the twilights set an all control box under the dash which is located, typically next to the steering column, but I have a pull down out of there. Any ideas? I am suspecting the multi control lever. However, could this also be a sensor for the twilight Sentinel? I have the shop manuals, but unfortunately there’* no schematic in there so I can’t tell which wire is which. Thank you so much advance for your help!

Shop manuals without the wiring. I have it in Mitchell.
