Intermittent Electrical Problems
Has anyone seen this before and have any suggestions on what I should tell the dealer next week when I take it in for service?
Starting having strange intermittent electrical problems last week. Right front turn signal and right rear parking lights go out intermittently. They will go out (always at the same time) and stay out as long as the car is running (the warning light and message go on and I have verified that they are actually out). Sometimes when I first start the car in the morning they will be fine, but usually they will go out after about 20 minutes.

Re: Intermittent Electrical Problems
I had the exact same problem last winter. I didn't want to take it in to the dealership unless it was acting up, but the problem was so random it took several weeks for me to catch it and get it to them. They told me they couldn't find any obvious problems, but went around reseating all the wiring connectors to the signals. The problem hasn't happened since, but I'm reserving judgment until the weather gets cold again to make sure it wasn't the temperature aggrevating the situation...

Same thing today, middle brake light went out, according to the instrument clusther
it then went off and then back on and off again. Not sure if the light ever went out.
The weird thing was about 2 minutes before this happened I was thinking how I hadn't had any problems...go figure
