    That means the light switch on the wall is bad. replace the switch . Turn the fuse off first then replace the switch.

    i know what it is.. the problem with it is that inside the wall switch there is a wire that is in contact with another wire, permanently forming a closed circuit.. making the light come on..you might need to put off the fuse and replace the switch with another one.. its pretty easy..

    the actually switch may be bad. get a new one, switch off the power and change it out. If you don't feel confortable doing that call someone in who can.
