Running Light Issue
Hey all, I have ran into a small problem with my new project. When I turn on the headlights and turn them back off the running lights stay lit, until I either undo the batteries or disconnect the power cable going into the relay box under the hood. Does anyone have a schematic for the chassis/lights?
Thanks
Thanks

It may be the just head lamp switch has shorted internally with debris accumulated on the grease for the contacts. Turn the lamps on and off quickly 20-30 times, this might clean off the contacts.
Remove the switch for testing with an ohm meter.
Swap out a know good switch.
