So I went into the desert this weekend for some fun. I was trailing behind some Jeeps so I absolutely could not slow down and we were go over some nasty bumps and dips. I hit a dip REALLY hard and caught some mild air and came back down kinda hard!
Whatever happend caused both my blinkers to KEEP blinking the whole day until I reached camp and was able to look at it. I just removed and replaced the hazards fuse located in the engine compartment. Problem solved.
Just a BIT of information just in case this ever happenes to anyone else.
By the way.....I pulled a Jeep Grand Cherokee out of deep sand.....and a Wrangler that was stuck in a muddy little stream. |

Joe - it's normal. Just turn the truck off and then back on again and it will stop. Lots of previous discussion on this. If it ever happens and the engine shuts off, you'll need to reset the fuel cutoff switch under the hood on the firewall.

rover thought you were in an accident and turned your hazzards on to protect you. if it thinks you are in a bad enough accident it will cut power to your fuel pump, as bill noted...sometimes the truck is too smart for its own good...
