    Hi All, I'm new to this forum, and I have an '09 DC 4wd Long Bed. The truck has the upgraded security system, and when you arm/disarm the headlamps come on for about 30 secs. I really don't like this,but I can't find any info on the system other than the useless manual the dealer gave me. The dealer doesn't seem to be very helpful here either,but I haven't gotten ahold of a tech yet to see if they know how to keep the lights from coming on. Does anyone know how to do this ?

    This works on my GULF STATES truck with a 3200 alarm. Anyway after ignition on, valet switch pushed total of 6 times, ignition off and back on with door closed. You should now be in feature #1 and the horn should have chirped at you 1 time as your headlights come on during disarm. If your horn didn't chirp and the LED valet switch didn't blink one time when you turned the key back on this is not going to work.
    If it did chirp at that time. push the lock button, to lock, on the drivers door either one or two times to get it to chirp twice. If that worked, again push the valet switch 2 times and you will be in feature #2, horn chirps and LED flashes 2 times, and repeat, pushing the lock button until you get 2 chirps. If it worked at this point turn off the ignition, done.

    I might add that once you turn the key back on and enter a feature point you must push the lock button within 15 seconds or it times out and you have to start over.;):cool:

    remember that when you push the button is one time and so on for every time you push the button is a time until 6 times.any doughts use the search and write " how to stop head lights from turnning on and off everytime I activate the alarm".
