    I have a 02 tacoma with remote started installed.
    Problem started with my dash lights (especially the clock) making clicking noise while blinking. This was about a week ago.
    Last night I realized that headlights (with headlight switch turned off and car off) would come on with mind of its own after being parked for an hr. If I turn on the car, I can turn the headlights on and off but I am not sure how to go about fixing this issue.
    Has anybody experienced a similar issue with their 02?? There is no auto light option.

    Thank you

    Did all of this start AFTER installing the remote start?

    Have you solved the problem?

    My 02 headlights will intermittently come on also. If I turn the key on they will go off. If I turn the key off they will come on. A couple hours or a couple months may pass before it happens again.
