2007 X3 - hazards come on with wipers

[powderhoundin]

Recently picked up a 2007 X3 3.0si and it has a very weird electrical gremlin. After starting the car, the first time you use the wipers, the hazards come on along with the dome light. You can turn both off using their respective buttons and then it won't happen again.

Anyone ever see that before or have any clue where to start diagnosing?


Thanks!

Yes with E36s with the hazards triggered from previous accidents. Not sure how to clear this out. Any major accidents noted on Carfax?

In starting to address electrical grimlins make sure you are working with a fully charged (proper) battery. And find out what thr fault codes are by using a bmw scanner.
