I have a MTH SD60E Item #20-20597-1. When should the ditch lights be on? I had an electrical problem and they were on all the time after that. I  don't remember them being on all the time before the electrical problem. I did a feature reset and when I started it up immediately after they were off. I started it up a couple of days later and they were on again. I might be thinking there is a problem when there really is none since I didn't know the parameters of the ditch light operations. Can someone enlighten me? Thanks, Don

When should the ditch lights be on? I had an electrical problem and they were on all the time after that.

If you mean that they turn on when the engine first gets power, even before the engine is started up, the FETs for the ditch lights are possibly blown and shorted to let track power straight through.

If this is the case, the Ditch Lights Control Menu function will not work and, eventually, the ditch light LEDs may burn out.
