Default 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Headlights go On When Opening Door!!!

Hi,

I recently bought a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trail Hawk.

I found light settings where you can turn off Daylight Running Lights,
Wiper (when it rains) Lights, when you lock you vehicle, but there is
NO setting to disable headlights turning on when you open the door.

Any ideas?

Thank You in advance, John

There is a relay under the hood for that - but it puts your entire system on "manual". I believe it is marked DRL - but it does vary by model.

UPDATE:

Reply (email) from the Jeep dealer, "there is no way to disable that
feature".

It varies by year and by model. But Relay 10 or relay 14 may be the answer. Note that it must be relay-operated, and also timed.
