#1 of 1 90 XJ Cherokee, headlamps won't turn off! by geeps Sep 17, 2009 (11:50 am)
After turning my engine off, the headlamps remain on. There is a buzzing noise under the dash that starts after about 30 sec's. The buzzing noise seems to be coming from the headlamp pull-switch on the dash panel. When I start vehicle and pull headlamp switch, all is well. When I shut vehicle off, after about 30 sec's, the buzzing begins and the headlamps don't shut off. Obvious observation would be new headlamp switch? Is the headlamp delay module maybe at fault? Or because of the 30 sec delay still occurring it would rule out any issue with the headlamp delay module? I can't be the first one experiencing this problem, its a 1990.
