Got home tonight and parked the car. Turned off the lights, turned off the car, opened the door and the headlights blinked on and off twice. Never had this happen before. LCM is new from Ford under warranty. I didn't hit the lock button on the fob as there was no horn and the door locks didn't clunk like they do. Any ideas?

I also shut the lights off manually, I don't use the night, day auto lite setting.

IMHO.... LCM issue.

LCM is brand new warranty from Ford. We've used the headlights maybe 3 times since it was replaced. Seems unlikely but not impossible I suppose.

We'll see if I can repeat it tonight.

LCM= Light control module???Yes, I think many call it a Lighting Control Module, potato-patahto:)

Thought I remembered this blinking issue was related to the security system. Thought I remembered reading about a similar issue years ago. Maybe I was dreaming

Check the three LCM connectors, make sure they are plugged in tight.
