So I've had the dash out to do heater matrix on lus 5 door. Putting it back together. Everything works as it should. But occasionally for no reason whatsoever the lights start flashing like indicators. Tap the relay and it stops. Checked I hadn't got the wires crossed round on the hazard switch etc just incase of back feed and its fine. Any ideas??

Bad stalk. Mine did exactly the same shortly before it started smoking!

Ok fair enough. Never seen it happen before. Seems a bit strange. Though it may have been something I did. Lights just randomly flash on and off!! I left it with the battery discounted in the workshop so will be fine for now if that's what you think it is.

Cheers dude. I guess its just shorting inside the stalk so makes sense.
