Phr3d is on a distinguished road
123460th mile dead (4-way flasher HID-fogs issue)

Got him on the charger now, please feel free to laugh about trouble finding the positive post - it is the last place I would look and no, I didn't rtfm until I -HAD- given up.

So, completely dead, cannot set 4-way flashers, no tailgate.
Last night, after the joy-ride, I proceeded through the return trip and parkway to pick up my son, so nice low-rev follow.
While waiting for my son, I pressed the fog-lights (HID) to make us glow better and light the stairs, but ended up double-hitting the switch, on-then-off within a second.

Instantly the interior lights came on and the four-ways started flashing. I pressed the four-way switch off at console, then open & close door to shut off int lights. Pressed foglight switch on again and confirm op on dash, all seems well, laugh about what-the-hell-self-test did I set off, drove home, turn off X, go inside.

Today, dead-dead-dead, presently charging at 2 amps, tailgate already works.

Should I -Be Afraid-? FSR go Boom?
thanx.
