Infrequently the following occurs.
When starting the car, the dashboard lights and back lights and the parking lights blink repeatedly for 10 or so times and then pause and then repeat. This go through a few cycles and then everything is fine. If you turn on the parking lights or headlights, everything is fine.
This happens for a period of time and then will go away for weeks and months.
I've done a 'reset' by disconnecting the battery and connecting the battery leads to one another. (I'm not too certain this was going to be effective). I've checked the ground wires that are easy to get to. I've visually checked fuses, but haven't checked them individually.
The behavior is so consistent with the 10 or so blinks and a pause and then 10 or so blinks again that I'm doubtful that it is a worn wire short.
Any thoughts on how to proceed? TIA
