The parking lights on a 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix will not shut off if the switch has become damaged or the wiring has a short. This will trigger the lights to stay on regardless of the input from the driver.
Turn your head lights off before you shut the car off
Doesn't have one. That's a Ford thing.
First shut the vehicle off, then set the parking brake, then start it back up, the lights should remain off. Once you release the e-brake the lights will come back on.
No, GM vehicles are not equipped with an inertia switch.
Yes There is. It is on the right front, under the hood. If your having issues with low beams, also check the parking brake switch. does another relay exist just for the tail lights/ parking lights? These light stay on all of the time. the only way to shut them off is to pull the fuse or remove the battery cable
Why do interior lights stay on when engine is shut off on 2001 Lincoln Continental car?
engage the parking brake , or shut the engine off
Check the adjustment of the brake light switch.
When your parking light stays on after you shut off the car, it is likely that the relay on that circuit stayed on. Disconnect the battery for 10 minutes or so and then reconnect it.
check fuse and sensors.
I would suspect a bad headlight and / or turnsignal switch assembly. I just ran across this problem recently with an 89 Aerostar with an Astrostart remote starter. When using the remote to lock the vehicle, the parking lights flash on and off. Something with the Astrostart was keeping the parking lights on until I shut the power off to the remote starter and from that point on the parking lights shut off fine. I don't know though what in the Astrostart is causing it. I don't know anything about remote starters. The owner is happy that his battery no longer goes dead but now he has to get help with the remote starter.
