Running Lights randomly turning on

I just recently started having an issue with my parking lights randomly turning on. Combination switch is off, headlight pop up switch is down. The won't turn on initially but after a ~a minute or so. Key in key out. I can then turn the switch on and off again and they will go off for a period of time before coming back on. Any thoughts of what could be wrong? I know the TNS relay could be the culprit but its wierd how it only occurs after a period of time being off (alarm related?).

sounds like a faulty security CPU issue; i'd replace the TNS relay anyways, easy fix if it's that

take out the alarm ECU and see what happens
