Default Flippin Headlights wont shut off!@%$#@@


Im assuming its the switch. Im not sure though. Even when I completely un-plug the switch and remove the keys the lights wont shut off. I have to disconnect the battery.

even when you disconnect the switch?I'm not exactly sure,but you "may"have another problem there..my lights go on when my ignition is turned on,with the lights off,so your problem could be in there ...

That makes sense. Almost all those wires behind those switches and connectors are coming loose.
