Q: I was ina small accident recently now my marker lights flash every couple seconds as though I'm locking the doors with the remote.
I was in a small accident recently where my car ended up on top of a rock. I had to replace the tranny pan but since the accident my marker lights flash every couple seconds as though I'm locking the doors with the remote. This happens when the car is running and off with or without keys near. I tried removing the flasher to get it to stop until I can figure it out bit it still does it.
My car has 115000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
