this happened to me about a week ago. i guess its some kind of computer problem, i never really figured out why it did it, but I disconnected the battery (only the negative side) and left it that way for about 24 hrs and then when i reconnected the battery it started functioning correctly again.
There are many reasons why a head light would stay on when car is off. These lights could be automatic.
Turn your head lights off before you shut the car off
My 2000 Toyota Tundra Truck, the brake lights come on when your not pressing on the brake paddle. Not even even if the car is on.
No
Faulty head light switch.
Is it locked?? It should go off.
That means you need to check the head lights. Suprisingly enough head lights on cars cause most problems. Especially on Fords.
No. That's very abnormal.
Could be the dash light switch is turned off.
Some cars had a delayed headlight turn-off system, to keep the lights on for a minute or two after the car was turned off. This was to provide you a courtesy light as you walked up to your front door.
you didnt specify year, but its time delayed electronically. Assuming they do eventually turn off, all is well. It's 1995 Cadillac Concours the interior lights, and head lights go out when I cut the car off but the dashboard lights stay on.
the ash lights come on when you turn your park/ head lights on are so you may have a faulty head light switch!
