Might have a pinched wire someplace between the seat and rear turns. I had this happen when I put on the run/stop/turn module unfortunately that then fried. Bought another one put everything back together and then did what yours is doing. Returned module swapped out for a new one and now everything is fine. Bad module from the factory
