Lights won't turn off?

[bjk]

So the 'off' setting for my headlights now leaves them on. I've left it on parkers instead because I assume that won't drain my battery as badly? Anyone have any ideas?

Did u wire your cigarette lighter wrong, if u wire it in wrong it'll short them on

Ain't been plugged in for months.

Check that the wires haven't touched then maybe?
If they're loose that is.

Managed to get them to out by flicking the stalk quickly. But it was still putting them on occasionally. I'll see if it keeps up anyway.

I would say your light switch is faulty.
If you had shorted wiring you would not be able to turn the headlights off by switching to parkers, your headlights would be on what ever position the switch is in.
When you turn your lights off the components inside the switch are still touching, hence lights still on.

This is where I would be starting my investigation anyway.

Cheers Phil. Might see if I can notice anything tomorrow if I can find a moment I don't have to go anywhere.
