I have this issue too. What I do is turn it off, put the lens cap on then turn it on. A message will come on the screen to turn it off then on again. Once I turn it off this time the light goes out. Hope this helps

I have done this before but wasn't sure if it was okay for camera and if it fully shut off, thanks!

This method seems stupid to me. To use an error action to make the light go out. What does Nikon say to do to get the green light to go out when you shut the camera off. That should do it on the B500.
