Although I will admit that electrics are not my strong point, from your symptoms, it appears that there is a small permanent current running through your cutout's voltage coil. It is not enough to fully energise the solenoid to pull the contacts together, but just sufficient to hold them together once closed.
If it goes when you turn the ignition off, the only place such a small current could come from is via the ignition warning lamp. This would suggest a short between the current coil and the voltage coil in the cutout. That is where I would look anyway.
Hope this helps.
