1 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 10/19/2015

Driving down the road and all of the sudden all lights interior and exterior are blinking off and on like in rapid succession. I have a seizure disorder and strobe/flickering lights are a trigger. This is extremely dangerous. Along with further investigation myself and my mechanic figured out it is the ctm which is not uncommon because there are hundreds of complaints about this and I've already dumped hundreds of dollars into this repair!.

2 Exterior Lighting problem

I have a 2001 Dodge Durango and the interior panel and exterior lights flicker intermittently. I can also hear a relay switch click when the lights flash on and off. It is dangerous as I cannot drive at night.

Noticed power steering was hard to turn also a rattle in the steering wheel if shook side to side fastly (cause worn steering column and box). Light selector switch burned out. Had to replace the switch module.
