Ford E350 lights

Hello everyone just today my 2008 Ford E350 parking front amber lights stay on and rear running loghts stay on when shut the van of and pull the key out and shut the pull switch all the way of. Headlights will shut off but not the amber lights and rear red running lights and the beebing noise stays on to push switch in but it is. Any help is appreciated thanks?

check fuses and relays could be a bad contact / corrosion

If the lights turn off when you unplug the switch, probably a bad switch.

Does your van have an automatic headlight feature?

The main light switch is probably bad. Fuse F10 (20 amp) provides power.

Here is the electrical diagram.

You could have some weird back feed if you have anything plugged into the trailer light socket.
