The automatic headlights on the Avalon are controlled by a button. Press the headlight button to turn off the automatic headlights. More information about the Avalon is as follows: 1.

From an Avalon owner's perspective: I've driven my Avalon for several years, and the automatic headlights work great, though sometimes you need to turn them off—like at a car wash or when parked at night without wanting the lights on. The method to turn them off is usually straightforward: locate the light control stalk on the left side of the steering wheel, find the rotary knob, and simply twist it counterclockwise to the 'O' or 'OFF' position. If your model has an infotainment system, like a central display screen, you can also navigate to the vehicle settings menu, find the lighting options, and select 'Off.' Note that the system might revert to automatic mode after a restart, so you’ll need to repeat the process each time you want them off. Additionally, automatic headlights enhance safety in tunnels or on cloudy days, so I don’t recommend turning them off while driving—only temporarily when it doesn’t affect others. If you have doubts, checking the manual or visiting a 4S dealership is the safest bet, as model year differences may affect the procedure.
