It appears my Ranger is set to have Automatic High Beams possibly? Is there a way to disable it? When I am driving my fog lights will randomly turn off and back on, if I'm going over a hill or if its a long straight away with no cars.

Go into your setting from the steering wheel controls, scroll down to vehicle, lighting and uncheck high beams.

You can also just turn your headlight switch to the second from right position and auto high beams won't come on.
If I am driving out in the country I put the switch all the way to the right (on Auto) as I want the auto high beams then.
It's annoying in a town to have the high beams kick on if there is no oncoming traffic, so then the switch goes to "On" instead of Auto.

The above is easier than me manually having to turn off high beams in the menus, then manually having to turn them back on when I get out of town and want the auto high beam feature,

This seems like something awesome for rural highways. Mine just goes on and off when it thinks it sees headlights from someone's porch light. Bambi mode made it less annoying but mine is off until the next time I am in the middle of nowhere.
