Ignition is off and all switches are off but still can't get these lights to turn off. It's odd because after I realized they wouldn't turn off I left the yard for 5 minutes and came back to them off but then several hours later they were on again.
I found the fuse that will turn them off its labeled 1 in my picture. Though last night in the dark I could see even with that fuse out the tail lights had some residual power and were on but very dim. So I took fuse number 2 out and the left taillight went out completely and fuse 3 took out the right taillight completely.
I've taken the relay labeled marker clearance lights out and that also will turn them off but replacing the relay with a new one doesn't fix the problem
Even the licence plate light is stuck on![]()

I had a similar issue that may or may not be the same as yours but it’s worth a look. My marker lights would come on occasionally without the switch being turned on. It was a ground wire with a worn spot in the insulation behind the switch panel grounding out and completing the circuit allowing the lights to come on.

As many computers/modules that they put in these new trucks. I would try unhooking the batteries for 15min or longer.
