I NEED HELP!! My parking lights won't turn off!!

Don't know why but the parking lights are on and won't turn off. The key is out of the ignition and the light switch is in the off position.

Any suggestions?

 

the button on top of the steering column

 

Oh I dunno maybe because no other car on the planet does that.

Stupid fvcking button.

Thanks guys.....

Yes, Epic.

 

That was my first post on i-Club/Nasioc back in 2001 :rofl:

 

Same thing happened to me in my Forester. The fail level I felt was difficult to grasp at the time.

 

It had happened before like five years ago but for whatever reason I thought it was the factory alarm or something. Old age I guess.

I'm glad everyone had a laugh at my expense.

 

I did the same thing on the brighton... couldn't figure out why my brake lights were lit up. Didn't put two and two together that it had the sti harness in it.

 

Haha, I think everybody's done that at some point in time...the first time it happened to me I was up in the mountains far away from everything...I unplugged my battery b/c I couldn't figure out why the hell the lights wouldn't turn off

 

<------guilty

 

Wow, from an OG...

Happened to me the first time I washed my car.

 

The weird thing is I don't remember my hand in that area to bump it. I did have the car washed earlier in the day so they may have bumped it when cleaning the interior but that means the lights had been on since lunch. I'm surprised my tiny lil battery held a charge.

Go Odyssey!

 

I did it on mine when I was installing my boost gauge. Took me awhile, but I figured it out. There are plenty of posts on Nasioc about this!

 

I am the ass backwards one. I was afraid to touch it when i bought the car. I figured I would never need it.

Does anyone use theirs?

 

HAHAHAHAHA! I had that same problem!

 

wtf would it be used for?

 

lulz. there's a huge bolded sticky in nasioc lighting for this

 

I'd make fun of you, but I had the same issue Stupid button!

 

I'm hooking my switch up to my radar jammer, which will also be installed in place of the parking lamps.

fuck you arbitrarily low speed limits.

 

that is the #1 complaint for the Subaru of America help desk

trey = noob

 

lol @ Trey...

isnt this from the guy that rebulit his B16C by himself? or was it a b18c...

 

<<<-------Guilty as well :keke:

What can I say, the switch doesn't exist to me. I never use it nor see it from my seating position. It had to be the car wash people that bumped it earlier in the day.

 

Same thing happened to me a while back. Parked the car and walked past it and lights were on. I freak out and ended up disconnecting the battery. Then the next morning I figured it out....lol

 

I had A similar problem with my first impreza but it wasnt the button on top of the column it was a crossed wire behind the radio cause someone dumb hacked up the radio wires (it wasn't me) the previous owner did it it took me for ever to find the wires that caused the problem,and find the correct wires for the radio.

 

Thanks Trey for the laugh....

 

I too, did this. Battery and all. I don't know that I'd ever felt so dumb before.

 

^^Assholes.
