No. The # MCL181ARCRB should operate in the same manner as your regular lights, so they shouldn't come on when the battery is charged. This would lead me to believe there is something going on that was bleeding power to the lights or the lights are connected directly to the battery instead of the running light circuit on the trailer.
If you can confirm that they've been installed on the running light circuit and not directly to the battery, let me know and I can give you a few other things to look at to see if we can get to the bottom of this.
