Need a Spot

Something really strange happened yesterday. Was driving and when I shut the jeep down, the fog lights came on all by themselves. (factory fogs on the bumper) I could not get them to shut off! They would go off if I turned on the high beams (like normal) but the switch on the stalk did nothing. I had to pull the relay from the block under the hood to keep it from running out my battery. What the hell is going on here? Happen to anyone else?
If this thing was not so capable off-road, I would start to think that it's a POS.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Should be rather easly resolved.. The relay is either excited by a + or a - signal.. By checking out the switch one should be able to find which.. I'd bet on a - signal and the wire has rubbed somewhere. giving a signal at all times.. Maybe not. Or the relay itself could be going south. To find out simply switch relays with onother one..
