Car Forum / Mitsubishi Cars / September 20062000 Eclipse crazy flashing 'check engine' and 'brake'
In my 2000 mitsubishi eclipse, once in a while, the "check engine" light and "brake" light flash on an off like crazy in no particular pattern while the car is running. The car is in very good condition and runs well. These flashing lights have only happened a few times. If the lights were consistently, or at least flashing in some sort of pattern, I could probably trace down a problem, but with it seemingly being random, what could it be? Should I be concerned at all? Thank you! Whoops...I meant to say "battery" (not "check engine") light and "brake" light. > In my 2000 mitsubishi eclipse, once in a while, the "check engine" > light and "brake" light flash on an off like crazy in no particular [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Thank you! > Whoops...I meant to say "battery" (not "check engine") light and > "brake" light.

Just a guess though bu that's where I'd start. Regards, Chance Cool. That's what a couple other people have been telling me....alternator or a short in wiring somewhere. I'm going to bring it to a mechanic as I don't have time/skill to track this down. Thanks again! > > Whoops...I meant to say "battery" (not "check engine") light and > > "brake" light.
