A control system and method for an automated lighting feature of a vehicle is provided. In particular, a controller receives position data; determines whether the vehicle is within or is entering a particular tunnel from the position data; senses by a sensor, a sensed illumination level of a particular section in the tunnel; receives data related to a reference tunnel illumination level of the particular section in the tunnel; compares the sensed illumination level with the reference tunnel illumination level; and changes a reference light illumination level for turning on/off a light when the difference between the sensed illumination level and the reference tunnel illumination level is a particular value or more.
