Yes, I was curious about that. There is a ground attached to the switch but for some reason it still has to ground to the dash.

If you're referring to the black wire connected to the switch, that is a switched ground for low speed, not a constant ground wire for the switch.

With the switch in the low speed position, it should connect both the black and light blue wires to ground (via the switch case attached to the metal dash). For high speed operation, the switch only grounds the light blue wire.

Thanks to both of you. It is starting to make sense now. I repainted my bezel-I guess i need to go back and sand a bare spot for better connection.
