im most likely highly misunderstanding the question, but turn the headlight switch to auto, when it gets dark while driving your headlights will turn on, after you park and turn the car off the headlights will go off after about 20-30 seconds.

really.. well ive it an 11th try, and just wait it out wait at least a full minute, i know the car has a power saving feature that will turn them off after about 5-8 minutes or so, so dont wait that long, if that doesnt work, then we'll go from there

You have to open and then shut your door and then a little while later they'll turn off

100% accurate... this information is written in your car's manual
