YF, It could be something as simple as you have the power in and power out wires reversed on the switch. The LED receives it's power from either the power in terminal or the power out.
If you have the power wire connected on the power out side, instead of the power in, the LED will be lit all the time. If you have the power wire connected to the power in no power should run to the LED until the switch is turned on and the lamps come on.
Here you go, pictures may help.
Same switch, #1 how it should be wired for LED to come on when lamps are on.
#2 LED will be on with lamps off, and as long as power is coming from battery or ignition feed
