Why does my lights stay on when the switch is off?

How do you disable a light switch so it’s always on?
You could turn the power off, pull the switch out of the box, remove each end of each wire from the switch, tie them together with a wire nut, either put the switch back in the box on top of the wire nut or take a blank plate to cover the box and leave it out. Turn the power back on and voila.
What to do if your light switch won’t turn off?
Turn the switch on, then touch the tester leads to both of the brass terminals on the switch and verify that the tester LED goes on. Turn the switch off, then repeat the test.
