Indicators turned themselves on.

Charles Banbury · Mar 9, 2016

A new quirk has arisen today. On returning home, I turned off the headlights and the headlamp delay dutifully activated. I did not lock the car. 5 mins later, all of the indicators came on (Solid beam not flashing) and stayed on until I hit the lock button on the key fob. Its never done that before, any ideas chaps?
2002 P38 DHSE. Many thanks.

Check for moisture in the drivers footwell...and then under the seat....a wet BeCM has been known to turn on lamps randomly....get it checked ASAP before it trashes the BeCM.

Thanks for your advice. Dry as a bone on the floor and under the seat. Hope that's good!

No alternator fault messages?

I found all 4 indicators came on sometimes as my battery drained due to the infamous RF receiver problem.
Fixed battery drain and not happened since.
