Mx5 ights

[Dave]

Bought an mx5 mk1 there and left it parked up for a few days, went back to it today and had to jump start it and the lights kept popping up and down and then the warning lights started going on. It wouldnt stop even when I turned it off and took the key out. I left it running and it will stop for a while then all of a sudden start again. Anyone know anything about mx5's or why that would be happening?
Cheers.

Sounds like an alarm/immobilizer system gone bogey maybe?

Yeah but if I pull the wire going to the indicators in the front bumper it'll stop for five minutes, then start again.

Then it's most likely a somewhat decent alarm, as pulling the wiring for the indicators is an obvious trick that this system is set up to work around if ya get me

I'm no alarm specialist, but it's what makes sense to me

I know mine doesnt do that for sure!

Try disconnect the battery and it might reset it ?
