Opal Corsa 1995, 1200, Ignition?

I have an opal Corsa 95, 1200, the trouble is with the ignition, the ignition lights will not turn off, you can even start the engine turn it off, take the keys out and it's still running. I have replaced the ignition switch, the battery and the alternator. the only way to turn it off is to remove the fuse and put it back, the ignition lights are then off, turn it on and you go through the same routine again to stop it

Please help

Thank You

Ian, Thank you for your reply

I checked the cost of the ignition relay before I replaced it, it was £40+, so I had it checked out first by an auto electrician, he found the problem to be a faulty fuel pump relay, changed it and the car has been running fine since

Thank you for your help, you put me on the right path with the relays

check the ignition relay once you have located it in the fuse box pull it out and the lights should go out if they do replace the relay you have sticky contacts if it dont theres a problem with the circuit board on the rear of the dash hopefully its the relay.ian.
