Running lights won’t turn off in Auto

[wiyeti]

Has anyone experienced their daytime running lights not turning off after you park the car and lock it? The lights are in Auto mode and I have to turn dial Off to get them to turn off. Seems like it started with BMS programming a while back.

Curious if anyone has had this issue and found a solution. Thanks.

They will turn off eventually. You can also unlock and relock your car a couple times and they will shut off.

The easiest thing that worked for me for awhile was changing the setting for the autolamp timing to off or zero. I don't remember the exact wording.

It's discussed here

Do you have a 2021 model or early 2022 model? (The same issue may be on some 2021 to at least some 2023 models)

If so there are a few service bulletins to look at: one replaces a defective (from factory) headlamp module switch (the switch on the dash you interact with):

when you shut it off and lock it they are now courtesy lights and will stay on for a minuet or two.

Its an early model glitch for sure. Our 21 big bend did it randomly and it was super annoying. Switch never left auto position
