    I just returned home from a two week trip out of town.

    I started my F355 to warm it up, and after 10 minutes, I turned the key off ...but the engine still was going.

    I tried the battery kill swich..... but the enging kept on going

    Any idea what the problem may be

    Thank you all,

    Ron

    Wow, first time hearing that one! Strange that the ignition worked to start it but not to turn it off. And if the battery kill switch didn't kill it there's only one answer...it's possessed!

    I have a few of questions

    1. How did you get the engine off or is it still running??...lol

    2. If you got the engine shut down have you restarted it??

    3. If you restarted did it shut down with ignition switch?

    4. Any CEL'S

    Got to be really careful with using the battery kill switch while the engine is running. I did this back when ecu's were the new kid on the block and had to replace the ECU. Haven't tried it on any F cars because the ecu's are so darn expensive.

    Most logical thing would be a faulty ignition switch

    It was trying to tell you it was not done for the day ;) Stuck relay, or ignition switch.
