My headlights remain on when the engine is switched off. this is draining the battery. I have tried replacing the circuit braker but still cannot turn the headlights off. As soon as i put the circuit braker in the headlights turn on. No rattle in circuit breaker but still tried replacing with no luck. Any suggestions?????
