Have this problem as well. Happens at times when lights won't do autolights anymore and I have to just turn them off completely or delete the lights and replace them so they will.

    Seeing this as well, but I thought I messed up the settings trying to switch auto lights off for candles only. The lot I was using had a bunch of candles on it, and it seemed that replacing the lights fixed the issue for me. I’m curious if the candles had any impact on this issue.

    Just to make sure everyone is me too/posting in the right thread.

    If you have issues with the auto-light settings reverting and lights not turning on/off on their own, please use either of these threads (depending if you play on a haunted lot or not):

    - https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/PSP-Lights-revert-to-auto-on-Haunted-Lot/td-p/10029896

    This thread if for lights not turning on/off at all anymore. So you manually choose to turn them on and they don't (unless I'm misunderstanding @TheBl4ckSh33p and they also just have issues with auto-lights.

      @crinrict Yes, most lights just are stuck in on or off mode. And auto light doesn't work with them.

        Same here, replacing the lights with new ones fixes it, but only temporarily.
