In the last two days, my indicator comes on for about 2 seconds the flashes a dozen times or so and goes off - Service Engine light comes on. At the same time I can hear the relay in the driver side fuse box clicking like away till the DRL icon goes off. No DRL or low beams. High Beams work - as does everythign else.
Other option - start the car and turn on the lights before going into drive. The dash and brakes light up but no headlights. But also NO wacky DRL icon flashing, relay clicking or service engine light on. Just no headlights.
I have checked the fuses - they are ok. I assume the relay is ok as it is clicking away and then, I assume, shorting open. Doubt the lights are dead as it affect both headlights and happened at the exact same time. From reading away on here sounds like these Sunfire's have a garbage wiring system period.
So it looks like I will have a fun weekend tracing wires looking for shorts or corrosion at some point unless anyone else has some ideas on this.
Thanks!!
