Default 1997 Dyna Glide electrical problem

Good day all and thank you for accepting me. I have a 1997 Dyna Glide with a strange problem. When you switch on ignition the tail light and head light blinks and the clicking noise comes from the Ignition Control Module? Could it be a wiring problem or is the ICM faulty. I also noticed is that the high beam blue indicator light is blown and the park light? Please help?
