    It happens when turning either direction, but does not happen if I have the headlights on. The previous owner installed LED flood lights in the front and a second set of iridescent lights in the front as well. Both are controlled by rocker switches on the dash. There are also blue HID headlights installed. The rear lighting seems to be stock. It is definitely a possibility that the previous owner fouled up a ground when installing everything. It's not a huge issue as all exterior lights function properly, just a little annoying to see my climate control lights flashing at me. lol

    With all of the other lighting upgrades the PO did, it's entirely likely that he slipped some LEDs into the brake lights or turn signals. If he did, your fix may be as simple as adding a resistor in line with the LEDs ... or swapping back to regular bulbs.

    Like Erik mentioned, more than a few (myself included) chased 'lectricamikle gremlins around & finally found a bad ground on the trailer light adapter. You didn't mention if your VX is so equipped, but it's worth checking.
