Help! Daytime lights won't go out 05 WRX

I have an 05 WRX Wagon and cannot get my daytime lights to go off. Take out the key, lock or unlock - nothing turns them out. I removed the fuse until I book in for service. I wanted to know if anyone else has had this issue? Mainly so the service people at Albany Subaru can fix it quicker....

Thanks -

Talking

Yep. Bumped mine with a mini Calif Duster while driving to work. I sell Suby's at a dealer and parts/service got a real kick watching me try and figure it out. Honest, took a good 10 minutes for me to figure out. I mean all the lights turn off when you shut off the key... except those :-/

Bollocks! yes - that was it - only took 4 hours to work out. I remember the dealer said "whatever you do - never push that button". I thought he was an idiot..

He was (is?). How do you think HE found out??? ;-)

This is a fairly large club at this point, eh?
