Next time you turn the car off, go back out after 15 minutes and see if it finally goes off. If not, you're going to have to go to radio shack and get a resistor. You'll have to pull the unit out to get to the wiring, but is a very simple job. I had to put a resistor in my trunk light to keep it from flickering. My license plate LEDs take about 10 minutes to finally go out.
