Electrical Problems

Hi guys,

I'm currently experiencing the following issues: dome light turning on and off while driving, the headlights do not work in the auto position, the horn does work, the wipers do not work and the passenger seat belt and air bag lights are both on. These problems are happening intermittently, they don't happen on every start.

The vehicle has no issues starting, so is it a fair assumption to rule the battery being the culprit out?

Could it be the LCM module? Or maybe a loose wiring jostling around?

Thank you, guys. The vehicle is going to the indy tomorrow.

In addition, my driver side door handle broke this morning so add that to the list of things to be fixed. It's been a rough month of August for the X.
