Headlamp relay contacts could be stuck together causing the headlamps staying on , or the lamp control module is bad .

SOURCE: Door Ajar Warning Light Stays On

Our Ford Expedition & an Olds Silhouette Premier & both did the same thing. Someone online said to spray the inside door where the metal connects with the frame & sensors are there with WD-40. We did & it fixed the problem. Maybe this will work for yours.

some cars have a plastic cover over the headlight area, all you do is pull it off. it's velcro. you don't need much room because all you need to do is twist the bulb and pull it out.

SOURCE: Security System

You need to go to autozone or advance and do an obd2 scan. This will give you codes so you can plot your next course of action. It will tell you if a sensor or something else is faulty

SOURCE: 2000 olds sillouette, headlights on, no brake/turn signal light

i would chk. break light switch. should be under dash above break pedel arm. emergency flashers will be on its own fuse, turn signals should have own fuse. as far as interior lights surging that could be ground or alt. chk. battery cables make sure clean and tight. not good idea unhooking bat. cable when running, one spark or surge to computer could burn up computer. besides that realy won't tell you anything if a diod is bad in alt. it may not show up until you tax the system. its best to take it someware like autozone, or any major auto parts store and have it chk.

Why wont my headlights shut off on 2000 olds intrigue

Could be a relay or a faulty switch. Have you checked the circuit coming out of the headlight switch to see if it is powered with the switch in the off position ?

Headlights stay on when truck is off

Do they ever shut off after turning off the engine. If not check the headlight switch to make sure that you have them on auto or in the all off position. even in auto they should not be on in daylight.

1999 oldsmobile 88 headlights wont shut off

Pull this circuit breaker till you can find the problem. Check for applicable trouble codes. You have a lighting control module, I can't troubleshoot that component from here.

1988 Oldsmobile Delta 88 (Vin "C") won't start, won't turn over

the 12 amp is for a jump start and the 2 amp is for a trickle charge which doesn't degrade the battery. i believe you have a loose connection either a loose ground cable or the positive cable to the starter check these and tighten if neccessary
