My brother has a 1999 Chrysler La Baron Convertible that does not get much use. Today, when he tried to charge its dead battery, the headlights and parking lights blinked on and off. I had never heard of this happening.
Any of you guys have any ideas about the cause and a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: The car is a Sebring, not a La Baron.
Was it a security system thing?
I know when I put my new battery in the truck it was nice enough to set off the alarm as soon as it got juice.... ::Censor::
If you think Woodbine is in the sticks, you should see where my brother lives in Colorado. I don't think he has a need for an alarm system, but I'll ask him if the car has one.
I've never owned a car with an alarm system, I just rely on attack mice and fire ants. I would have never thought of a problem with an alarm system.
It may have a factory alarm. An alarm trying to go off may explain the flashing lights.
Wow what a task to change that battery!
Figured being from Woodbine you'd also enjoy the gun play. ;)

Being from Woodbine, I have a gun range in my backyard. Almost everyone in my neighborhood does.
And, thanks for the link.
From my brother.....
Success, I locked the doors with the power lock and then went around and
opened each door and the truck with the key and that fixed it.
Either way, I think I found your problem.Quote:
