Diode dynamics ditch lights suddenly wont shut off.

I just came outside from lunch, and my rock lights were on, the switchlight was on, but the switch was in the off position. I pulled the relay and the lights shut off, but the light on the switch inside the truck stayed on. So i pulled the power cable from the switch as well.

I had not turned the lights on in days. And ive had these on the truck for months with no issue.

 

Probably a faulty switch. The relay wouldn’t pull in without current. And there couldn’t have been any current with the switch “off”. And since the switch had the light on as if it was “on” you can kind of rule out a short and you can rule out the relay. Try a new switch

 

Faulty Switch or bad relay, can you post your wiring diagram?
We are just guessing here without knowing how you wire the lights, look at where the 12V+ to pods coming from, switch or relay for other components you added.

 

Seems to be the switch. Bastard.

Thanks guys

 

The switch isn’t super complex you could take it apart and take a look just need a small flathead and maybe needle nose if you got fat fingers
