Default lights turning on by themselves..

since saturday morning Ive noticed my fog lights and rear lighs (just like when you unlock the car) have been turning on by themselves, I thought the car was opening by it self too, but it's just the lights. Now they do turn off after about 9 seconds.
I has been raining here none stop since friday, maybe that has something to do with it...any one had this problem????
Ill go to the dealer on monday.......

Sounds like you many have a leak. Some Mustang owners have experienced this unfortunate event. If water gets into the Smart Junction Box, which is located on the right side of the passenger's foot well, it can and will cause havoc on your electrical system.
Feel around the carpet and even pull it back some to see if there is any moisture.

There is a TSB as well as many threads on this issue. Here's one example;

Wow... On an '09? I thought that had been solved after the '07 run. Let us know what you find.
