High beam headlight indicator occasionally flickers on

2001 Boxster S.



Once in a while when driving with low-beam headlights on, the blue high-beam indicator in the dash will flicker on and off. The high beams themselves do not appear to flicker on and off - just the indicator light.



The high beam indicator works properly and is on solid when the brights are turned on.



The high beam indicator does not ever come on when no headlights are turned on. It only flickers occasionally when the low beams are on, and it's very intermittent.



This all of course points to a short somewhere, where the low-beam on circuit is intermittently energizing the high beam circuit and/or the high-beam indicator circuit.



Has anyone seen this before? What was your solution?
