Tail Lights Stuck On, won't go off Empty
PostSubject: Tail Lights Stuck On, won't go off   Tail Lights Stuck On, won't go off EmptyFri Mar 27, 2009 3:28 pm

It's me again. Yesterday everything was working great in the car. Today I go out and I notice my tail lights look like they are on. I figured it was the sun so I try to start it just to make sure. Sure enough I had a dead battery. Upon closer inspection the rear lights are constantly on. It's separate from the brake lights, it's the actual driving lights that are stuck on. I thought maybe it was the brake light switch, but that rules that out. Has anyone experienced this or does anyone know where I could look to locate an issue with this? Thanks for any help in advance. Kyle.

Have you done anything to the lighting system? Sequential turn signals for example?

No idea... no

But check to see if your headlights are still working when you turn them on.

No modifications whatsoever. Only thing I did was attach a knob to the head light control switch. The only lights that don't function properly and stay on are the rear driving lights. The rear brake lights, and head lights all function properly and come on and off when they are supposed to. The only other thing electrical I've had done was done by the dealer. He reprogrammed my remote keyfob and replaced some fuses for my dash. Could the keyfob be causing this issue?

Does this car have an aftermarket alarm/starter? Does it 'flash' the parking lights when you do something with it? I'd start with something like that...
