Hey everyone, I have a 98 240sx with sr20det, I got a HID headlights for it long times ago and it was always working fine. But tonight, I found out that the lights won't go off, even I turn of the ignition and pull out the key. the tail lights and DRL stay on, actually are flashing, I can hear the relay was clicking...when I open the door I can hear the warning sounds to remind me pull out the key or turn off the light whatever...I tried to disconnect the battery, but as soon as I connect the battery it goes on again....anyone have idea about this situation? Thanks!

You could try unplugging your headlight stalk to see if that turns everything off.

Sometimes those go bad.

Though I've normally only seen them go bad on s13's.

is there anyway to check the stalk before I replace it? I tired the car this morning, the lights now stop flashing and just stay on...

Check your driver side fender harness also.
