How do you turn off running lights on a Chevrolet c1500?

You can't turn off the running lights (also called parking lights) on a Chevrolet C1500 completely without disabling the entire lighting system, which is illegal and unsafe. Running lights are required by law in most places.

The switch that controls your headlights also controls your parking lights (running lights). If your parking lights are on when your headlights are off, it's likely a malfunction. This could be due to a faulty switch, wiring issue, or a problem in the body control module (BCM). You'll need to have a mechanic diagnose the problem. Simply disconnecting the lights is not recommended.
