Warning light display center

2005 36MDDS Started for the season yesterday, no warning lights but all functions seemed to work. Key off and lights all started flashing and would not shut off. Killed all masters and restarted no change. Restarted to move still flashing . Parked and shut off flashing stopped.

Any help?

Need more info. Lights started flashing: which lights?

By warning lights do you mean the two light clusters right of gauges?

Do the gauges sweep when you turn key to ON before starting then settle down?

Any warning tones? Any warning message in the little winow

What is start battery voltage?
Engine starts normally?

Gauges sweep yes and seem to function properly

All the lights to the right of the gauges. All flashing at the same time.

Audible tone, yes no message

Crank voltage was 12.8
Running 14.3

Started normally drove normally

Seems it fixed itself. All back to normal. I'm suspect of the chassis battery grounds and/or the ignition switch.

I like it when things fix themselves!
Occasionally Ive had to shut down all power and disconnect the ground from the battery to get rid of some of the unexplainable electrical issues.
Glad its working for you!

Not the ignition switch, it only switches ground and gauges get their ground from same source. Pull the burlwood bezel & check the connections on back of gauges, they may be loose (for some reason some or all don't contain positive detente connection feature and mine loose signal from time to time from vibration)

Would bet you a ground problem. Just went through a very similar thing. Cost me a ton to get fixed. But they found it.

I suspect you will get similar symptoms if the connector on the Vansco is loose.
