Discussion:
truck keeps On after the key switch is turned off

Hi guys,

I don't know if this is a silly question but I just want to be sure. I have 2 trucks same customer, where some times, after the key switch is turned off, the truck keeps ON normally. I'd say is a bad key switch, but this is the first time I see this, and it's happening on 2 trucks at the same time.
Is this a common issue?

thank you

If the keyswitch and wiring is ok check the relays on the fuse relay card, probaly have a tip welded shut.
