Hi Slebanc,
Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum and to the family. We have a great bunch of folks here with lots of information and all willing to share their knowledge when needed.
I'm sure they can be turned off, but how?? Do you have a remote for porch light or that controls any lights. It might be controlled by the remote. I'm sure some of our other members will jump in soon with more or better info for you.
Be sure and check out our Heartland Owners Club. Join us at a rally when you can and meet lots of the great folks here and make friends for a lifetime.
Enjoy the forum and your new unit.
