I came out of the store this afternoon and noticed that the running lights on the left side of my car were on. Checked the switch and it was off....hmm.

I had the lights on before I ran into the store..so I cycled the switch a few times, but the lights stayed on. The right side of the car did worked normally. Signals on both sides worked fine too. I decided to pull the fuse on that side and drove home. Back in the garage, I put the fuse back in and everything was working again...

Is this signs of the switch going bad??

Like Chris said, if you activate turn signal w/ key off it will light parking lights on that side. Nifty 70's parking safety lights ?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif)
