PArking lights turn on by them selves!!

[empie1]

So after I park my car, I come back out and notice the parking lights are on.I open the door to turn them off, and surprise, the knob on the stick is already off!I put the key in and turn it on.Flick the parking lights on and off, and take the key out.They stay on.So I start the car, go on and off, and turn the car off. I get out, shut the door, and they turn back on!!WTF? Im think the relay or the stick?Im stumped on this one.Any ideas?

Well it's either a stuck on taillight relay, or the column switch is bad, or a short. If you pull the relay and the lights stay on, it's a short. Swap with a similar relay to see if it's the relay.

I'm having the same problem with my car. i switched some relays around and there still on. i unplugged the battery for awhile to see if they will reset but still on. did you fix the problem and if so what did you do to fix it?

Maybe the multifunction switch on the column is shorted to power keeping the parking lights on? I would try swapping the relays and if that doesn't work, unplug the switch.

i unplugged my headlight switch and changed around some relays and there still on so im just gonna try and trace some wires and see if there's a melted one somewhere.
