I have to disconnect the negative battery cable to be able to turn off the headlights

Asked by GuruQKTV Apr 28, 2017 at 12:05 AM about the 2004 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Headlights worked ok for a time. It was raining hard & they would not go off without me taking the negative cable loose. I have to reconnect to start the engine or wind the windows. This goes on all day, all night. The damn hood must weigh 100 lbs, & this is getting very old. Any advice?
