    Spot light staying on after high beams turned off

    Hey Guys,

    2012 Puma and I noticed the other night my spotlights were staying on after the high beams were turned off. To turn off the spotties I'd have to hit the toggle isolation switch for them.

    Where do you guys suggest I start looking.

    Cheers in advance,

    Mick

    I would be looking for a relay on the power cable. Sounds like a sticking relay to me.

    I am with Bearman. I have had this issue quite a few times when using relays of questionable quality (Narva).

    Poor relay earthing is also a culprit.
    Terminal 85 or 86 ( can be either) has to be earthed properly.

    What rating is the relay? If it is too small, it will degrade, possibly causing this fault, amongst others.
