A very strange happened the other day on my flair. After a couple years of restoration, finally put it on the road and enjoying the fruits of my labor. I have never been able to find the very small battery drain, so installed a kill solenoid to the system. Jumped in the other day to go for a spin, and first thing I noticed when turning on the system was the stereo coming on without the ignition on. Weird. Tried the blinkers and they would come on , but no blink. weird. I spent an awful lot of time making those darn blinkers work right, so VERY annoyed. And I notice that the blinkers activate the stereo. Turn the left blinker on...the stereo comes on...right blinker...same thing...no blinker the stereo goes off. Turned off and on the kill system to no avail. Went for a drive, came back and it was still not working. After contemplating the problem for a few hours, came back out to the garage and it had fixed itself. And was fine today.
