    Just got assigned a freightliner and I don’t know how to turn the headlights off when using opti idle. The headlights switch only works when the key is in off position and opti idle only works when key in in on position.

    Headlights, or running/accent lights?

    I have a '23 Cascadia. When I use Opti-Idle the headlights are not on, but those accent lights are.

    Just turn the headlights switch to off. The parking white lights will stay on. They are not the same brightness as driving.
