Stay on when you want them on, or stay on when you try to turn them off?

Got multi-meter?

Check and test your park lamp relay as well.

99 is new enough to have the automatic cut offs. Simple fix and check is to use the switch, if they still fail to shut off you have a proper wiring issue and maybe not an issue with the integration box.
