light issue

Post by adzski »

last night when i got home, i couldn't get my parkers to turn off + dash lights.
flicked the headlights on multiple times to see if it would work, and fog lights, but it didn't work.
tried disconnecting the battery, but it didn't work.
anyone had the issue before? is it a stalk issue?

Perhaps you had too much acid before u came home & those mushys you stopped and picked weren't "normal" mushrooms

Yep, cant stay on with battery disconnected. Could be the switch I guess.

    Vectose is usually pretty good with this sh*t.. Are they LEDs & have u installed anything extra lately? Like a stereo or extra lights n sh*t
    pull the relay to isolate the problem... ie if you pull the relay and the lights stay on then its not the switch/relay, but more like a short on the park/dash/tail light wiring.
