Have some issues with break lights currently, had someone switch some bulbs on my right taillight, moved break and turn signals, and now my front right yellow signal bumper wont turn off even when car off..guessing its just the issue with the rear bulbs, but wanted to just post here to see if there was a direct way to solve this.

Either your turn signal is on or you have a short and your car thinks it’s on.
These cars are designed to have the same side turn indicators on, solid, if the stalk is down/up and the ignition is OFF. All Porsches do this. It’s so if you park on a dark road in Bavaria someone won’t slam into your parked car from behind. It’s in the owners manual. |

Agree with the above.
Check to make sure your turn signal lever is in the middle off position. If it is either in the left or right position, you'll have a steady light on that side even when the ignition is off. German thing I think. |
