Default ER Flashers Gremlin

Hello Everyone and Merry Christmas from the newb!!

I did a search and couldn't locate my problem so I thought I would post up! My wife has an 05 GX 470 and this afternoon the ER Flashers just came on by themselves. I pulled the fuse under the hood and checked it and that seems fine. Tonight I pulled the relay from under the dash and of course that cuts the flashers off, but now no turn signals. When I shut off the car the flashers do not start untill the interior lights go off. When that happens the relay makes a clicking noise for a few seconds and then they kick in and start flashing. I'm wondering if I have a bad relay or a more serious electrical gremlin????

Thanks in advance!

Tim

Booyah - Thanks for the reply! We bought it used from the local Honda/Toyota dealership and I think the warranty ran out in May. I'll double check though.... Thanks!

You have 4Year/50,000 miles! Even if you are a little over the 50K Lexus should hook you up--Its Lexus and they take care of their customers.
