first of all check your fuses... <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Special-K-Coupe &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">corner lights stay on even if switch is off</TD></TR></TABLE>
the switch might've been bypassed or a stuck "on" switch.

blown fuse, blow bulb... replace both if blown, if it keeps blowing then there's a short to power, fuse with a wrong amp rating, blah blkah blah

check the fuse once again, check the harness... it would be easier if you have access to a volt meter, continuity tester or even a test light

 

i checked all the fuses...they are all good...how can i check if the switch was bypassed? i seen wires cut and taped???

 

totally omit and remove the switch, if it;s still turned on then it's been bypassed

 

bump does anyone here have a schematic/ lelectrical diagrams?
