Headlights won't turn off
So I got home from work and planned to run inside, change and come out and work on some things. I left the key in the aux on postion, got distracted and ran my battery dead. I just got a jump and now my headlights won't turn off.
When I went outside and found it dead, I heard a humming coming from the front driverside of the engine bay - looked like a computer, my driver rear tailight was flashing like a broken neon sign and so was my plate light on the rear.
Could I have fried something by leaving the key in the Aux postion? Has anyone seen anything like this?

Thanks Robar. I disconnected the battery to stop it from draining and saw your not about 20 min later. I went back down, hooked it up and the problem seems to be gone. Must just be the ghosts in my JK.

My JK likes to occasionally flip flop the high/low beam switch especially after a few days of rain. I'll turn on the lights and the high beams will be on. If I push the stalk forward, it switches them to low beams. I have no idea why it does this. Must be a Jeep thing...
