Those two circuits would end up in the same looms from near cluster/stalk all the way to the SMJ from memory, so fault could be anywhere between cluster/stalk area down to the SMJ, and even in the SMJ. Other possible f**kery is some cars for compliance in Australia had extra resistors added to dash / headlight wiring to alter dash bright ness, so could be some dodgy free electrons floating out of that area if it's done in this car. -
More amps is also useful in modern cars when diagnosing, since just having canbus networks alive will draw over 5amp to power the car, and that's before you actually "turn the electrics on". Yep, I've flattened a few batteries while doing reverse engineering when I've forgotten to put the cars on the charger. Have also had one of those Victron chargers Dose bought die and start spewing high voltages out of it too. That's a sample size of 1 though. Charger lasted about 18 months before doing so.

I've watched multimeters beep at over 100ohms of resistance. A continuity beep doesn't confirm a short, especially the less high end your multimeter is. Measure actual resistance.

It beeped, confirming continuity. If it didn't, no issues.
