Breif background... Christmas trip... 240 breaks timing belt... just drover 12 hours to pick it up... runs great, but Batt / Brake Failure / Bulb Failure / ?one I can't remember? all rapidly flash whenever the car is running... even if you are in park... seem to go blink insync with bumps in the road, but still blink even if sitting still... car runs fine... he replaced the timing belt, alt. belts, and the little piece in the dist. that tells the coil when to spark (no points in this- the later version) it has a 3 wire plug coming out of it, and the plastic was cracked, so it'd short against the side... that's all he did tho. I assume it's a loose wire somewhere... where to look?

Thanks... take care...
Aaron. :)
