No security light since I don't believe there'* issue with the BCM. It'* got to be the lights drawing power since the car starts when the headlights are off. I do have red emergency lights in my trunk that turn on when the trunk is open. Car cranks but won't run when the headlights are on. Strange really since there'* no way of disabling the automatic light control because every time I start the car the turn on. Battery is two and a half years old and has a reading of 12.07 Volts when tested. I have the Duralast long life battery. Starter is good, alternator is good.
HELP!!

Does the battery show 12.07, or 12.7?
If it says 12.07 like you are saying then the batter is at around a 50% charge, it should show around 12.6 or so if fully charged.

Sorry, it'* at 12.45-12.50 around that area. Battery is fine but I'm not getting a reading on my multimeter when I disconnect the negative battery and negative terminal. Followed the video but I'm getting 0'* but than the car won't start when the lights are on!
