        #access ul li.current-menu-item {
       	background: #444;
       	box-shadow: none;
   
       }
       #access ul li.current_page_item > a,
       #access ul li.current-menu-item > a{
       	color: #fff;
       }
   
       #access ul ul li { /* level 2 */
       	position: relative;
       	display: block;
       	float: left;

 * There’s a couple of errors with your CSS that I can see. Try using this:
 *     ```
       #access ul li.current_page_item,
        #access ul li.current-menu-item {
       	background: #444;
       	box-shadow: none;
       }
   
       #access ul li.current_page_item > a,
       #access ul li.current-menu-item > a {
       	color: #fff;
       }
   
       #access ul ul li { /* level 2 */
       	position: relative;
       	display: block;
       	float: left;
       	clear: both;
       	width: 100%; /* submenu width fix */
       	min-width: 150px;
       	margin: 0;
       	border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(220,220,220,0.3);
       	background: #444;
       	box-shadow: none;
       	border-radius: 0;
       }
   
       #access ul ul a,
       #access ul ul ul a {
           display: block;
           float: none;
           width: 100%;
           padding-top: 0.75em;
           padding-bottom: 0.75em;
           color: #ffffff;
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know if it’s corrected your problem.
