Default Needs help!

I have a 1998 Chevy Blazer Ls with 4 wheel drive. And so I replaced the starter, brake pads and sway arm bushings on the front of the car. And then I got in the car started it and my interior lights were flashing and my turn signal is making a turn signal noise even when the turn signal is off. I turned the dome overdrive on to try to kill power to the lights and that did not work they still will flash. This is very annoying and it will turn on and off while i am driving. I would like to know if this was a recall with the electrical or do i need to replace a fuse or what? if anyone knows how to fix this problem please help

That's not going to be a fuse causing it. Sounds like you've got some shorting issues in your electrical system. Basically, you'll have to trace wires with a DMM, locate the short, and repair it.

does it have an alarm system in it? The other thing i know is the multiswitch (blinker ****) is known to wear a bushing and make the blinker relay click continuously, but no lights are supposed to flash with it. Is your hazard switch broken? Do you have a tow package? trailer lights?

I figured it out, my alarm needed to be reset or something like that so I used the remote locked and unlocked the doors and that solved the problem, thanks to all that helped
