Tower Lights Cycle On & Off....Help!

[johnlyda]

I have a 2001 MC PS 209. I have 5 tower lights that cycle on and off at consistent intervals, almost as if they are pulling too much power and overheating. It's so consistent it can't be a short. They will stay on for 2 min or so then go off, and then come back on in another minute or so and cycle through that continuously.

I'm not sure where to start. ANY help you can provide will be much apprecaited!

Have you felt the relay for getting hot, could be faulty relay.

I have not as I was not sure where to even start. Thanks for that recommendation. Would that relay be located somewhere close to the battery or under the console?

Not sure if the same but on my 05 197 the relay was under the dash behind the kick panel, if not you may have to follow the wires back from the tower, that's how I found my relay,
