Please!!!! I need help electrical short
All dash board lights go on then stay on for awhile and when I hit the brakes they all disappear and everything goes back to normal but let off the brakes and hit the gas the lights come on and the radio turns off and stays off till I hit the brakes then comes back on. But when it's in park and on just sitting there idling the radio stays on and every things normal not sure what's wrong I replace both batteri cables and batteri and still does this stuff.

Everything worked fine till the battery holder broke then the front of the truck busted the battery open cause I was missing the windshield washer reservoir And battery acid and water came out and the windshield wipers would just turn on by them selves then go off, well the wind sheild wipers work normal now but still have a short some where cause dash board lights go on some times all of them or just 3 of them but push the brake pedal down and they dissaper and everything is back to normal till i let off and the gas

I would look at the light harness around where your battery broke.
Since the fuse block is also right there look at those wires wires as well for damage.
if you don`t find any time to get out the schematics and the Meter and chase down the circuits.
Was there any damage in the fuse block in the cab caused by this adventure??
Does this vehicle have any alarm or the left over parts of one ???

Sounds like you still have problems from your battery sliding and breaking.either a bad ground connection ( most likely)or one of the other wires is not making a good connection .
It could very well be the one coming off the B terminal of the alternator
You do have a meter ?? The schematics of your vehicle ??
Even with those it can be work to find these problems.
It takes time
