Default Headlights-Strange Behavior

I was working out in the garage today and noticed my 2012 JKU Rubicon headlights were on. Inside dome lights were on too. Then mysteriously they both turned off. 30 seconds later they both came on again. And then went off again. Went inside the house to get my keys and cycled the door lock and alarm and that seems to have solved the problem temporarily. I am continuing to monitor this issue. It's almost like the light sensor sensed it was dark out and turned on the lights. I might have to take it out of automatic headlight position.

I also notice for the last six month or so when exiting the jeep the radio would stay on sometime more that 30 seconds before it would shut off and the door locks would cycle.. The way it use to work as soon as I opened the drivers door, the locks would open on all doors and the radio would turn off immediately... Not anymore...

Just strange things happening..Anyone else experience a similar problem?

Electrical problems, I always check to see if any fuses are lose. Are there modifications to the electrical system such as more lights, higher wattage bulbs, different stereo system. That's where I would start.
