hahaha


















J/K, I wouldn't do that.

Look at a wiring diagram and see where they get power from, it could also be the relay sticking.

Re: head light will not shut off switch problem?

which relay is for the headlight?

its not just the headllight its the parking lights too. they will not shut off. I even cut the 4 wires going to the switches on the lever. Did not work
I tried various connecting of the wires and grounding them nothing works

I think I need a new lever but I am not sure yet.

Pull the cover on the fuse/relay center, it's probably labeled.. otherwise just pull them one at a time until the headlights go out.

This is stupid because there are 3 fuses to pull
1 for each headlight
and then the parking lights

then you have to put them back in.
