Several questions from your response....

Check the steering column where the gear shift levers are located for a small switch that used to ride on the 1st / Reverse lever....if the lever is removed, the switch will be on all the time, explaining your lights on all the time...check close, as PO may have just connected the wires together....

Post a pic of where the wires have been cut on the trans...
also post pic of the end of the wiring loom that's been cut for the trans...

The truck is starting in gear as it has not had its wiring modified for auto trans use....
its still thinks its a manual trans...

I have to assume you have no convertor lockup ?

and no overdrive either?

We can help, but need pics of what you have to assist...
