Asked by jcronk77 Oct 15, 2009 at 11:08 PM about the 1996 Lincoln Mark VIII

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

After turning the ignition off, the headlights would not turn off. Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing this problem?

Martin answered 14 years ago

For how long do they stay on after you've turned the ignition off? If it's three minutes or less then you need to adjust your autolamp timer. Also, if autolamp is turned on, make sure nothing is covering the photocell on top of the dash, pass. side.
