    Maybe an ignorant query but.... sometimes my Baja Designs S8 (installed in the lower bumper position) DRL lights remain on after the truck is completely closed and locked. Even if I turn off the headlights at the stalk, the middle DRL lights of the bar remain on. This most often happens at night after I drive home and realize a couple of hours later that the DRL of the S8 are on.

    The only way that I have found to "force" the S8 DRL to turn off (and I don't think this is the right answer) is to start the truck, turn the S8 on/off, and then shut off the truck and lock the doors.

    Puzzling to me....is this happening to anyone else's S8 install?

    The light was installed per the factory instructions and no extra relays or otherwise added

    I don't usually mess with aftermarket lights unless it's an offroad-only vehicle, as almost none of the aftermarket LED stuff is DOT legal (notice a lot of people driving with what appear to be high beams on, last several years?)

    What you describe sounds like a wiring issue, to me. I bet others, or Baja will help you figure the problem out, though.
