I have a quick question about the auto headlight delay feature. Mine never worked and I finally got it to work thru forscan it was disabled, I enabled it and it works great now. But after I turn off the truck the headlights stay on for about 20 seconds before they shut off, Im currently running OEM HIDs retrofitted. My concern is if the 20 seconds is enough to cause a big battery drain to have my truck not start when I come back to it since they are HIDs. I saw on forscan I can reduce the time but im wondering if I should or not. This is for a 2012 XLT with HIDs

 

I use 60 seconds and have no battery issues.

 

wow 60 seconds with HIDs?

 

Since HID's use less juice when operating, they just use more when they start up so 60 seconds is no biggie.

 

perfect thanks yall

 

I also very frequently run the radio with the truck off. No battery problems once I unplugged the BMS sensor.
