If you are referring to the stock DRL(Daytime Running Light), those are not suppose to come on when the headlight is on. I believe you can re-wire it to turn on with the headlights, do a search under DRL.

Please be more specific on your second question

Ok, thanks for the reply. But is there any switch somewhere for the fog lights??

The perimeter lights: From my steering wheel I can go inte the menu that says perimeter lights on/off, if I put it in off the lights are still on??

Perimeter lights, are you talking about when the truck is turned on or off with the key fob? You cannot just drive around at night with the lights off.

Hello Ken

The orange lights on the roof cannot be turned off. the perimeter lighting turns on with the key fob so you can see where you're going at night (drl's and reverse lights). The DRL's should be on during the day and off with headlights on. Are your headlights always on? Is the truck still under warranty?

You have several options there.

Of course I'm not going to the garage and pulling the cover, climbing in and messing with it just for you. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif Which means I'm probably wrong, but check it out. You may be surprised. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

For inside lighting, there is a button on the dash that keeps interior lighting from coming on when you open the doors.
