What type of lights?
Can you turn them directly on and off with AHP?
Low current LED type maybe a problem as Appliance Modules have a sensing circuit that may keep them on partially or they are making noise and the Off command never is seen.
If direct control works, we then know it is a timer issue.

Make SURE your timers have both ON and OFF times. When setting up timers it's easy to miss either on or off times.
