This means that if the indicator intermittently lights up it could be related to defective sensor relays or quite possibly a short in the lighting circuitdue to frayed wires, loose contacts, etc.
All in all, it shouldn't be a major fix but may require a little patience and systematic troubleshooting on the part of your local automechanic.
Best of luck.
