With the head lamps in the on position:
I turn the car on and the ticker starts (sound only). After 60 to 90 seconds the ticker goes off. If I touch the brake pedal or the accelerator pedal the ticker comes back on for 60 to 90 seconds and then goes off.
With the head lamps in the off position:
The same thing occurs but the security lighting starts blinking (drive indicator, dash lights, ext. amber lights)

I am also having many sensor lights coming on even when there is no problem (Coolant Light, Gas gauge will run to full and then later on go to empty, etc.)
