Headlight problem !

Annoying problem with drivers side Headlight ! Every so often my drivers side headlight comes on ( parking light ) and stays on even when engine off and light switch off - just this one light - nothing else ! I turn the light switch on and off a few times and it eventually it stays off! This has happened two or three times in the past weeks. Any ideas what I should be checking?
Thanks
Tony

ahh now i had this problem for a while mate both with my t4 and the t25 until i asked my borther inlaw believe it or not and weather its just with vw but if you leave your indicator stalk on when pulling over and stopping once u turn the engine off what ever direction your indicator stalk is clicked on to the head light and back light will stay on, no idea y tho??? just click your indicator stalk into middle and it should turn off well it does on mine any ways hope this helps ,give it a go

yep its a vw thing designed so that if you need to leave parking lights you only need to have the outboard lights on so saving the bat
