headlights staying on.

alright so I just came home and my headlights are stuck on ( I pulled the fuses so it doesn't kill the battery ) but I pulled out my DRL fuse, pulled out both headlamp control fuses and the lights still stayed on.

as soon as I pulled my left and right headlight fuse they both turned off put them back in stayed on. flash my highs they stay on ( the lows ) anyone have a clue???

Are they turned on instead of auto? The end of the turn signal selector rotates

have you tried physically disconnecting the light from the wiring? also are you running HIDs?

yes im running HID's and no I didn't try disconnecting the bulbs but I figured pulling the fuse is the same thing. I am starting to think its a ground issue

Is your ballast touching metal? Our headlights are switched on the ground.

i think cliff is onto something, it's probably not making a solid contact and therefore only doing it if the conditions are perfect
