Problem with emergency blinkers

Aug 21, 2004 3 Replies

I have a '98 subaru Outback wagon. Last night I discovered my battery was dead. I replaced the battery and found I had a clicking sound that seems to be associated with the emergency blinkers. The blinkers seem to go on even when the emergency switch and the ignition switch are in the off positions. Any suggestion as to cause and remedy.



Thanks

On my '96 Outback, anytime the battery is disconnedted and reconnected, various lights blink until the power door lock system is reset. Either by locking/unlocking the power door locks with the remote fob or pushing the reset button in the wiring harness next to the door lock controller under the dash on the far left side. Your '98 may work the same way.

Thanks very much for taking the time to respond. I have one last question for you: How can I locate the reset switch? Is it identifiable in some way? Thanks for your help.

Thanks, your suggestion worked.
