Tail lights/Dash staying on for 15 minutes

[Mogus]

Starting yesterday, for no reason I can discern, my tail lights and the dashboard display on my ‘21 Sport are now staying on for 15 minutes after I turn the car off. These are aftermarket halogen tail lights, not LED (though I do have Oracle head/fogs, as well as two Nilite hood-mounted fog lights). All work was done at the dealership months ago, so it’s not (necessarily) something they did. Voltage when the Jeep is running is 14.5.

60k in the odometer and I’ve never changed the batteries.

Any thoughts? TIA!

you can go into your settings on the head unit and change the time that your lights are on after you turn off the vehicle. I have mine set to immediate. as soon as i turn the motor off, everything is off. no lights on, no radio playing for 5 mins or until i open the door. Off is off.

Sadly, off is not off in my case. Everything is set to 'off' and they're still staying on for 15 minutes.

is your headlights set to auto or on? If its on, they have a default 10 or 15min timer i believe. I dont use auto but i also sub consciously flick my lights all the way off when i get out.

No Tazer; any flashing was done at the dealership when they installed the Oracles from the stock hot-trash-halogens.

They're set to auto; I did flick them to off and they stayed on however.

ok that defenitely seems like a software/firmware issue. I'd see if the dealer can reflash/update it under warranty.
