Question:

What would cause my 01 Lexus IS300 Tail & interior lights to remain on when turned off, key removed & locked?

The only other electrical problem that I have experienced with this car is that the keyless entry system wouldnt work when it would rain. Today, it rained and now the tail lights and interior lights remain on when I turn the car off, turn the lights to ‘off‘ and then lock the car. I have checked the fuses and they appear to be fine. There is one small light in the drivers side headlight compartment that is also on and I cant get them to go out! Any help would be appreciated.

Answer:

There is a short to ground somewhere. Since car electrical systems are very complicated, this will require the attention of an ASE certified auto electrician.
