I have a 2door 1997 Honda Accord. About 3 years ago I took it in to have a window replaced and when I got the car back whenever I start the car, the hazards blink for about 2 min and then they stop and remain off until I turn the car off and on again. Even if I turn the car on and off quickly, the hazards will continue to blink for the normal 2 min.

the mechanic who must have caused this problem was a total a** and refused to fix it without charging me (he has sense gone out of business) but this issue drives me nuts and I am thinking that it has something to do with a car alarm or something.

I do not think that I have a security system in the car but does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this strange behavior? thanks in advance!

 

Is this car a "Special Edition", SE, EX, LX, or DX? If there is a security system, that could be the problem. If your car is a SE (or Special Edition) the security module is located under the passenger seat. If your car is one of the other trim levels, the security module is located under the steering wheel. These locations are for the OEM modules. The only idea I have about the problem is the car thinks it is being stolen and is doing this.

 

Thank you for the fast response!!!! It is an "EX" version. I didn't think that it had a security system but I will check tonight. Do you think if I simply "unplug" it somehow that could solve the issue...

I guess my real question is: If I unplug it, will it cause any issues elsewhere?

Thanks!
