What would cause the engine to still run for a few minute after the key is turned off?

A sticking relay , faulty diode , ignition switch . I had to replace a headlamp switch on a ranger once for that problem . Sounds strange , I know . Find it by pulling fuses and relays one at a time ( while problem is happening ). When one kills the engine trace from there .
