Auto lights mucking about

Happy new year all.
I had this before a while back but it was doing my head in last night driving across France.
Lights would repeatedly dip themselves and engage auto lights, I would put them back and seconds later it would do it again.
Didn't do after Eurotunnel, so maybe the 'turn it off&on again' cleared the fault.
Anyone had this?

A dodgy COM2000 lighting stalk can do this.
Cheapest solution is disabling the auto lights function with PP2000.

As Doggy says, this feature can be disabled using PP2000.
My old 406 did this and would be a royal pain in the arse, to the stage where the lights would refuse to even switch on, or turn themselves off when I indicated..
If you are happy to have your car off the road for a few days - the comms unit can be sent away to be repaired for about £30, which is cheaper than a replacement.
Here are the details;

The chap is Graeme and is a thoroughly decent man who knows his stuff.

Thanks guys,
Disabling sounds easiest, need to find someone with PP2000.
