    Hi forum, hope someone can help me here.

    I recently turned the car on (battery switch) and suddenly when I turn the car off and take key my parking light are on in front and rear of car and “P” green light left of steering wheels is on.

    I have tried pressing the parking light on middle of roof but that does not seem to do anything.

    Any help is greatly appteciated.

    Thanks …

    Yes - I’ve had the same issue. Easy button swap

    Thanks for quick reply all … very helpful. Another question. Is there easy way to remove the green parking indicator switch from dash? Does it just pull out from front or do I have to get behind the dash?

    It is press fit with tabs .. getting behind it (not hard ) may be required if tabs have to be compressed to pull out..
