Default Chime on when headlights on?
I took the vette out of hibernation this weekend.. for some reason the chime is always on when the headlights are on, even when im driving...

Has anyone run into this before?

Also, is the chime wet? If it's shorted out or corroded inside, that could cause it do do that, too.

Do your turn signals self cancel?

Yep, I'm betting you had a turn signal left on inadvertantly....

They click off when you make a turn, but the left one doesn't blink on the dash (lights blink tho) and the right one blinks a little slow now that you mention it
