noiz3 Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 So my headlights stay on even when the car is off. And also I just went to pop the hood and the cable is detached under hood I guess. Any advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Check the fuse links for your headlight issue. Get the hood popped open with a long breaker bar to reach the hood latch under the car. Once you get it open get a new hood cable and electrical tape it to the old one and slowly pull it thru the fire wall while the old broken one comes out.

noiz3 Posted June 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 So messed with the headlights today the relays are fine. I don't know what could be wrong when the car is off and I push the dash buttons lights pop up and down but when I turn the car on headlights come up and in order to turn the lights off I have to unplug them under the hood on the little 4 wire block.

TexasQuest Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Check and clean all the electrical connections from the headlights to the switches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyWadd Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) A lights stay on issue is the relay, its stuck in closed position. Also happens to the pop ups a lot. Two thing control the circuit, the switch and the relay. The switch controls the relay. Edited June 10, 2014 by JohnnyWadd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noiz3 Posted June 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Well I checked the relays they are fine. Think the previous owner did some rigging or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean you "checked" them? when the lights are on but switched off with switch, pull the relay, then reinstall it.

noiz3 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Basically the conclusion I came too is the lights have a short in them or something after the relay cause I have replaced the relay with a new one getting the same problem.

Starfighterpilot Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Did this problem happen all of a sudden or has it been an on going issue since you bought your Lady? Do the tail lights stay on too? For What It's Worth. KEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noiz3 Posted June 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Before I got it and tail lights work with the button still, it's just the headlights that stay on. So I have to unplug them at the box that has the four wires. The box says lights, fuse b, eci, and something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The box says lights, fuse b, eci, and something else I strongly suggest that you down load, read and use Chapter 8 of the FSM manual to trouble shoot your problem. That way we are talking about the same apples and oranges of your Lady's electrical system before we can help you. For What It's Worth.
