In FC's these kinds of shenanigans are often caused by the wiring harness from the light switch. It was about 18" long and would run between the switch and the main loom – they would fail a LOT… as would the switches. I don’t know if this was a problem on FD’s as well, but if the switch is ok, then it’s worth a look.

I’m sure the FD guys will have some insight. Have you searched in the 3rd gen section?

FCs and FDs often have weird issues caused by batteries that are on their way out because of an internal short. I've seen this on numerous FCs and FDs where the headlights would even pop up and down on their own. Often the CPU goes wild and the horn goes off on its own too. You might want to try a new battery to see if some of the gremlins disappear. If that solves your issues, have an alternator shop check the alternator too, just to make sure it wasn't the cause of your battery going south.
