Default Side marker and fog lights wont turn off

Help! My fog lights and parking lights won't shut off. Iooked on here and read to check the control module.Mine is dry, pins are good, and it rained just yesterday. My lightswitch **** on the dash with fuse box did get wet about the same time as the lights started acting up. I have to remove the fuses and install them at night to drive. Please help.

Try some other switch if it does not work after it dries out.
How did it get wet?
You did mean the module in the trunk?

The module in the trunk is dry, and never looks like it has ever been wet. I am talking about behind the **** on the dash that turns lights on and off

Think about my reply. I am talking about two modules.
How did the switch get wet?

I don't know how tge water got in. I have a Roadster and das a coupe prior. My doors don't seem as tight as with the coupe.. I'm thinking it's coming in via door seal.

It was the light switch fuse module. Found replacement used on eBay for $75... Works great
