hello. I have a 2003 accent and when I turn off the car and the lights, the headlights stay on. This is draining my battery. Anybody know the cause/ how to fix this? Thanks a lot

It must be a short somewhere. You may have to get a wiring schematic and trace the wire, or pay a mechanic to do so. In the meantime, see if pulling the headlamp relay in the fuse box shuts the lights off; you might have to do this every time you leave the car until you get it fixed.
