Flashing dash lights may be a sign of a short in the wiring. May want to take a look back there. I always start by checking fuses when something electrical like lighting doesn't work. Did you check the fuses? Next thing I check are the bulbs. Just a thought.
It works now, but it needed one new headlight. New 15 amp fuse in #4 slot. Plus I switched a wire. When I wired in the new plug. So the dash lights are always on. Unless I pull #4. Still working that one out.
Just a suggestion to help prevent this in the future. When purchasing a used vehicle, I always open the fuse box and look under the dash and check for any signs of tampering in the wiring. If i see something messed with and the owner claims to know nothing about it, I will go down a bit on my offer.
Indeed. This jerry rigged wiring for a trailer. It was much too long. So it kept getting caught in the tailgate. After many times of it getting pinched. It shorted out.
