She got home from work, dark outside, shut it down and locked it with the key fob. The lights turn off. Goes inside her apartment for the evening. Her friend gets home an hour later and told her she left the headlights on. Sure enough the light are on.
I had her Unlock it, manually turn the lights off. Turns them back to auto, closes the door and lock with the FOB, lights still on. Open its starts the truck, shut it off, locks with the fob and they turn off like the are supposed to.
What in the world is going on? Its got a new alternator (figured thats why the batteries dying), on its 3rd battery and replaced the Headlight relay. Are there any other relays that might be sticking or is the BCM going out? Thoughts?

What if she double clicks instead of once when arming? Will that turn the lights off? I usually do that since I get home late and don't want to have the lights on around my neighbors.
