After the last rain ( I didn't move my car(it was parked)....)I didn't submerge it in water........ my inner headlight bulbs (parking lights) wont turn off.


My LED tails are also on?

Any ideas on what it may be?
They just turn on by themselves =/ Even if I double lock and they are off about 30 seconds later they turn on by themselves ?

wow. this is a serious problem.
mostly likely it's your relay.
DID you mess around with the light wire or add straight on the wire without adding fuse?
really serious..
I messed around my old 2000 coupe accord lights. add more lights by connect straight taped on the OEM wires with our adding more fuse. Later in time, my fuses got melted. and the relay gone crazy.
My interior lights and parking lights turned on. my alarm turned on automatic.
shorten the story. MY car went crazy because of the electrical problems. so I said to myself i wont mess around the lightning systems. "Dont mess around with ur fuses and relays system". with a small mistake. u will make your car gone crazy.
. I CHANGED THE WHOLE ENTIRE FUSE BOX SYSTEM WHICH GOT MELTED. AND OTHER WIRES MELTED OUT"

Obviously, there is a short to power/ground problem. In which the rain caused. It's going to be hard to pin point without an electrical diagram. Someone who has access to this information can post it up.

The relays are those funny looking black rectangled units.

you are right about it.
It's really hard to find out which relay is gone crazy.
But check ur fog light's relay first.
It can be any relay which related to the one caused it gone crazy.

The parking lights are off....(But the car leaves them on)....
Then when I put my emergency flashers on it does this....

As i experienced. This is the cause of crazy "relay"
it wont let you turn off unless you take out the fuse for parking city light. Test it. Unplug and plug in.
Try to listen when your relay "sound" . If there is a sound it will sound like a "click".

Which one's the parking/city light fuse for the GS?
I wonder which relay it is

sorry i dont know. But i know the fuse boxes are under ur hood.
Try to open the biggest fuse box. And behind the box cover. It will tell you which one is for parking light, head light, fog light, interior light....ect.....

In the testing process( you have to turn on all the lights on) and try to unplug and plug back. To test which one is the one you looking for)

hope this will helpful to you

tail relay, drivers side kick panel, right next to the FOG relay.

* I woud remove the relay, check the legs of the relay 3 and 5 and make sure they are not stuck closed.

* Also check if u are getting ground at 2 on the socket. If you are, that is causing the relay to trigger and lighting up the tails.

How would I check for ground at #2?
and Check the relays?
I do have a multimeter I can use as well.

U would put the meter in continuity test and check both legs of the relay. At #2 put one lead there and the other on a good ground spot.
