i am sure there is a timer on the headlights. in the 2000 the headlights will shut off as soon as you open the door, if the engine is not running.

I can't remember exactly, but I am pretty sure that it is on a timer mechanism. I believe after 45 minutes the lights automatically turn off. Check the manual, I am pretty sure it is in there.

All the 2k ups have it. Leave the door open to long and off everything goes, same thing if you have the doors closed and the lights on, if it taxes the battery too long, off it goes.

Like I said, I was not really sure, just trying to recall from when I first read my owners manual, but I do know it is on a timer.
