A number of us have experienced headlights on multiple locomotives in a consist coming on when you press the Headlight button on the throttle. This issue dates back to the "2004" Revision Software. The fix is simple as described below:

• Press Program 5 times, or Press Program, then 5, and you will come to the "SET CMD STATION" menu 
• Keep pressing enter to scroll through the Set Cmd Station menu until you come to "Send Function Command to Consist"
• Disable "Send Function to Consist" by selecting "0" to disable the function
• After you have disabled the function you can exit out of the menu, press "Program then 0"
