the daytime lights (i think) on my car keep flashing, the car is completely turned off, no keys in the ignition, there is no alarm on the car, so i don‘t know why it‘s doing this. has anyone heard of this? the car is an oldsmobile aurora also.
sounds like a short circuit - there might be a place where two wires that are supposed to be insulated from each other are touching.
Is the car's name Christine? OK, just kidding. No, I'm not. Yes, I am. -----If not then you have a major electrical problem. Take car to a reputable repair shop. I think you can get a ticket for flashing your lights, plus it is embarrassing when other cars honk their horns when you pass.
Well it sure sounds like the relay for the daytime running lights is acting up bec basically the comp tells the lights to stay on via a special circuit that feeds the daytime relay system. Although you've not even mentioned the yr , make , model , engine size etc I highly believe if you check the daylight lights circuit you'll find the relay that is faulty.More then likely this relay would be in the under the hood fuse panel but is possible it might be in the main fuse box in car but I highly doubt it. It's a good idea to get a detailed service manual for that vehicle too. Hope that helps and best of luck.By the way it is possible if you had frayed or bare or damaged wiring this problem could occur but I doubt it , keep in mind that even a comp can cause this type of problem.Also I'd go to a do it yourself auto wreckers and try getting all the relays , fuses etc that that vehicle has so you've parts on hand to fix this problem and for any future troubles.
