Not switching off

I have an electric truck that does not switch off when the key switch is turned off, I must unplug the battery and then plug it back in again. I have stripped the dash panels and cleaned all the printed circuits, everything else works fine.

has anyone added any after market devices? headlights, a cb radio? someone other than the dealer added back up alarm or rear work lights?
somewhere someone tapped into and crossed a wire? it sounds like a relay is staying energized (on) and providing a circuit or a crossed wire providing a "back-feed".

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
