Well, it sounds like your headlights might be flickering due to a loose connection, a faulty bulb, or a problem with the electrical system. Don't worry, these are common issues that can be easily fixed. Just take a deep breath, check the connections, and if needed, replace the bulb or have a professional look at the electrical system. It's all part of the journey of taking care of your car, and you're doing great!
On my 2004 Modus the lights automatically go out as you open the drivers door.
Is it locked?? It should go off.
Brake lights should NOT be effected by the headlights. Brake light function is completely independent of the headlights. Assuming you are not refering to the tail lights, or marker lights, which are supposed to come when the head lights are turned on. Not having brake lights when the head lights are on is a big safety problem and should be corrected.
This sounds like a bad light switch. The head lights are usually wired seperately from all other lights so the only common point is at the switch.
There are many reasons why a head light would stay on when car is off. These lights could be automatic.
it is most likely that it is a relay if both your tail lights and your dash lights are not turning on when your head lights are on, because your head lights run off of their own fuse it is most likely that it is a relay if both your tail lights and your dash lights are not turning on when your head lights are on, because your head lights run off of their own fuse
Turn your head lights off before you shut the car off
bad connection
you didnt specify year, but its time delayed electronically. Assuming they do eventually turn off, all is well. It's 1995 Cadillac Concours the interior lights, and head lights go out when I cut the car off but the dashboard lights stay on.
loose head light switch
Check the dimmer setting for the dash lights. There should be a dial to adjust the brightness on the dash to the left of the steering wheel.
May have to be turned off manually Auto sensor bad
