The headlight switch failing will also cause the doors to go up when only in the running light position.
I tried a different switch and it still did it, so I don't think it has to do with the switch in my case. I'm pretty sure the headlight and running lights are completely separate, that is what I am having trouble understanding, there is no crossover, they are fed by different circuits. If I iam remembering correctly
