My headlights will come on when there is no key in the ignition. We have to unhook the battery to stop it. Some say it's a relay, but whatever it is I need help with it.
Update from Jan 30, 2022: After numerous times in the shop for this issue 2 things were discovered. 1) the relay fuse down y the battery itself was old, so it was replaced. As were the battery cables. While key was off, there was enough power going into the engine compartment fusebox.
