Default HELP ! Car continues to run after igntion swtiched off !

Right, car starts as normal but i have to switch off the isolator switch to kill the engine even with the key removed from the ignition barrel !!

Remember i am running OFAB management and NEVER had this problem before. I'm thinking maybe one of the relays have gone but i've checked them and can hear and feel them clicking on

Here's a drawing of my wiring......



What do you think ?
