I installed a DEI545T (automatic headlight control) in my 97 Explorer XLT. Works great, except for the when I arm/disarm my alarm and the parking/headlights turn on for a couple minutes. My parking lights turn off for 1-2 seconds, then back on, and repeats about every 10 seconds till the system shuts off. I tested the relays with my DMM, and it's the DEI module that is actually shutting down the relays. Any ides on this?

Well, instead of trying to fix the issue I bypassed it. Address a relay to switch control of the parking lights over thr thethe headlight side when the ignition shuts off. Done and done.
