When the lights are turned on in a vehicle, the electrical load increases due to the demand from the lighting system. This added load causes the alternator to work harder to generate more electricity, which can lead to an increase in engine idle speed to compensate for the additional strain. Additionally, if the engine's idle speed control system detects the increased load, it may automatically adjust the idle speed to maintain performance and stability.
