I have a 2018 RDX and a few months ago, I went to start it and the battery was close to dead. Charged it up and got it running, but it turns out the reason was that the headlights came on and stayed on, draining the battery.

Since then, I've taken to turning the headlights on and off manually, instead of using the Auto position that I had used previously.

Does anyone know how I can get this fixed, so the headlights don't come on randomly and subsequently drain the battery???

Thanks!

A similar problem was when the sunroof leaked and the water damaged the body control module. In the early stages, simply cleaning and purging helps, in the later stages, only replacing the module.
