It is actually your brake lights that wont go off. There is a sensor on the brake pedal that is for the brake lights. If you have the brake pressed the head lights will stay up. That explains the headlight problem. This switch works so that when you realease the brake pedal it pushs a pin is and lets the car know that the brake is no pressed. I had this same problem with my car. I'm 100% sure that is the problem.
