I searched and found several threads detailing the same problem, but none of them had the solution.
I came home yesterday at noon on a bright sunny day and noticed my headlights were on. I waited for awhile to see if they would turn off but they never did (at least not until the battery died.) The headlight switch was off, and the indicator on the mirror (I have the one with the buttons as opposed to the one with just the slider) was off. I tried turning the switch on and off but other than the lights on alarm sounding when it was on, nothing changed. I tried turning off the autolamps on the mirror, but no luck. Unplugging the mirror but that didn't change anything either. I finally removed the fuses for the headlights and parking lights in the power distribution box under the hood and that made them go off. I do not have DRLs or a LOM so it can't be one of those. The autolamp module is apparently under the dash somewhere, but I couldn't find a picture or a description of exactly where it is. Can anyone help with that part? Thanks in advance.
