Default Apollo blazer 9 headlight issue

I bought 2 brand new outta the crate apollo blazer 9s for the kids for christmas, both of them the headlights come on when the key is turned on. Even with the headlight switch off. I dont think thats normal being that there is a headlight switch. So the switch does absolutely nothing for the lights

Are you sure the switch isn't hi/lo beam? If it isn't, it would seem that the factory has got the wiring wrong, and it then depends on whether you are bothered enough to do something about it. You could leave things as they are, though it will take longer to charge the battery. If the kids are not going to ride at night anyway, an easy fix is to remove the bulbs. If you are good enough at electrics, you could find the fault and mend it.

I think the switch is a hi/lo cus there it three click settings to it so im assuming off/lo/hi. So i bought 2 of these quads at the same time one is a '21 other is '22 and both are doing the same thing. I briefly looked at wiring on the front near the steering neck and did find a 2 wire plug not connected to anything. Problem is with these quads you cant find any wiring schematic, no kind of manual. Ill have to deal with it after christmas, kids are now out on break from school and dont wanna spoil the suprise by uncovering them.

If the switch is off/hi/lo it can only be the switch, or the way the wires are attached to it, at fault.
