A strange electrical gremlin today

I had been away for a solid week in Training so the wife and I took a little 60 mile trip around our area today. About half way through the trip after I stopped and filled up the car my emergency flashers started flashing. I tried the switch on the dash and it didn't seem to make any difference. Once I got home I shut the car off and restarted and it went away ???

anyone else experience this ??

Thanks in advance

Dwight

The car was probably mad at you for letting it sit for a week lol. But this is one i've never heard before.

That's a new one easily explained as soon as you figure it out!

Hey Dwight... If you think it's the flasher unit I have an extra one you can have.

Always check the blinker fluid when filling up the tank.
