The headlights will randomly just turn on and run the battery out while I am sleeping or working. The manual says to turn off the automatic lights you press a button four times within six seconds and it will make a sound but even that does nothing.

You would need a more advance scanner to see if there are any fault codes in the body control module. Module could be turning on the lights.
