Both or just one? Did you turn twilight sentinel off? It's an option in the DIC.

Both headlights,when I turn off ignition and pull the key,about 15 seconds later lights automatically go down and turn off....seems like this all started after my battery went totally dead....I will check in dic....Thanks Chris
