On My 2008 Dynasty Marker Lights will (SOMETIMES) be Lit even with Light switch Off (But not always.) I assume I have short somewhere, But How would I locate Short?.

The "juice" needed for my marker lights is switched at a relay...which is ultimately controlled by the dash headlamp switch. There is a series of them (relays, that is) that provide juice to turn signals, turn lamps, the horn, A/C clutch, etc.

Finding this relay would be step 1. You can confirm you've found the right one by removing it...and thus the marker lights won't come on when the headlamps are on.

DCTENT,there's a 97% chance that you have a sticking relay, take it to your local parts store and pick up a new one, so your ready when it sticks again. Note; if it sticks on, it can stick off, leaving you with out lights, and that will happen at the worst possible time. Most relays run$7>$12, cheap insurance.

If you think it is sticking and can duplicate it just give it a rap with the handle of a screwdriver. If it drops out buy another one.
