Default One parking light stays on with switch off?

Right front stays on until engine is shut off. Noticed this after my new motor install...wasn't doing this before!

Your left one is half burnt out or the connection is corroded. They're also daytime running lights so they're always on.

You are correct sir! Thanks for the help!

Thought I should add this car is new to me and I didn't know these lights are also daytime running lights! Pretty easy fix if I knew that little detail!! LOL
