headlight will not turn off

its a 1998 grand cherokee lerado the head light selector switch is on the extreme left of the dash panel I believe your link is for 1999 and up

Hey Bill, would you have a link to Headlamp Adjustments on a TJ.

Thanks Chuck

the high beam indicator is on at all time also if this helps

Try pulling the circuit breaker and relay for the headlights,, I had a set of driving lights that liked to do the mysterious on thing once and a while, I found out it was actually the fuse and relay causing the problem. The relay contacts would stick.

Snow...

does not have auto head light feature were is the relay located? and description of identity would be appreciated, I'm guessing that is what it is the problem were is the circuit breaker I've looked in the power distribution center under the hood and all I can locate is the 30 amp fuseable link.

thanks for all help so far and in the future.

There is no relay in the headlight circuit, it's probably a bad headlight switch where the contacts welded themselves together or the switch mechanically failed so the contacts are touching.

removed the headlight sw and lights still stay on took the fuse out from power distribution center for the headlights and the battery was drained overnight my guess now is a stuck relay just do not know which one

found a module under the power distribution center that was leaking some nasty fluid, my guess something gone on the inside, will get a replacement tomorrow and see were that gets me.

Did the lights go of when you disconnected the battery?

No, they are powered by a power recycling flux capacitor. ;)

I thought the flux capacitor didn't kick in until 88.4MPH.
