Head Light problem

A good friend mine has a F450 2000 work truck and has a problem with the head lights.. When he turns the ignition on to start the engine (without starting the engine) his head lights come on .. any ideas? thx

I believe you can unplug the drl relay infront of the left batt.to control manually ,it worked on my 01f350.

My LATE '99 had the DRL option, I don't care for them, so I unplugged them, thats probably what the deal is with the F450 of the OPs friend.......
