Headlights stay on after truck is off Edge juice

Hey guys,
I really need help with this one....
Today I was driving and decided to set my turbo timer on my edge juice attitude to auto shut truck off at a certain temp. So I noticed that my headlights now come on after about a minute after when I shut my truck off.
I also have a autostart remote starter/alarm combo and not sure if this is the problem or not.

The headlights will just stay on and not shut off. Seems like the Edge turbo timer is thinking the truck is still running and keeping the lights on ??
Does anyone know what is going on here ?? I am completely lost here and this is pissing me off. I have the two turbo timer wires tapped in the correct location #28 and #35 as per the Edge manual and the red wire to the #26 fuse.

Please help if you can

Thanks

if you leave the lights on when you shut the truck off this is normal.

on the remote start, i have seen several trucks lights turn on when starting remotely. that I would say is normal as well

My 1st call would be to the folks that sold you the Edge. Sounds like a bug.

have the edge with attitude on my 2006 have the timmer on have never had this problem the only thing with the timer is when you run the truck hard and get out of it that it will sometimes run for a minute or so before shutdown. so a lot of people will look at you when you get out of your truck with the keys in your hands,

I called Edge and wow what amazing customer service they have. Te guy tried a few things with me but figures the box needs to be sent in. Suggested I call the dealer where I bought it and they should swap boxes for me hopefully today.

one other thing to add is that when I removed the two yellow Edge turbo timer wires from fuse box the headlights shut off....weird

Update:
After another call with Edge tech support they admitted that it is a known issue. Something went bad on circuit board and they are sending a updated replacement version box to me today.
Edge has great customer service......
So for anyone having the same issue after using the turbo timer feature and your headlights permanently stay on after the truck is off you need your box updated.
