That sounds like a ground issue. Weird things happen when grounds go bad. One of my Celicas said I was going 30 mph when I turned my parking lights on and it went up to 50 with the headlights on, along with other weird issues. I had pulled the motor out and did a few small things here and there and disconnected a ground wire in the process. Problem solved.
