Right side lights on when car is off??

My passenger side exterior lights won't shut off. The lights are turned off inside, the key is out. I have no idea what is going on. Any ideas?

is the turn signal clicked to the right for a marker light? Try clicking it to the left side.

It's a feature, not a bug - should be explained in your owners manual. But if you had the right turn signal on when you turned off the car - this is the result. The left turn signal left on would leave the drivers side lights on.

It's for parking on city streets.

But all my lights are on, and the turn signal is centered. I mean EVERY light on the passenger side of my car is on (other than DRL and HIDS)

Turn the igniton to on position. Then cycle directionals, re-center stalk, then shut down. See if it goes out then.
