this happened to me once, I accendently pressed the hazards when i went to change the song on my radio and then i tried turning the lights on they didnt work no indicators or nothing so i turned the hazards back on and off again and everything went back to normal, perhaps you have something like that probably not even the same thing but its worth a thought ---

look for a loose connection or freyed wire. This tends to happen with older cars that get winter driven. ---

since its electrical look under the dash, right under the steering wheel. Look for any unplugged connectors. This could also be an ecu problem perhaps i believe the ecu controls the lights aswell. But for now look under the dash and lets us know what you see ---

Theres a lttle white box near the fuse panel. It may be fried, usually fries when an aftermarket stereo is installed incorrectly. [http://http://www.nicoclub.com/articles.php?id=158162](http://http://www.nicoclub.com/articles.php?id=158162) ---

What kind of car is it? Without any info on the car i would take a stab and say that the Daytime running light module is messed up (obvioustly not a problem if its a us car) it does really wierd things when it burns out. Try tapping it with a hammer or screw driver its usually a little grey or black box under the hood mounted on one of the strut towers or close behind the passenger side headlamp. Its a very common problem on infinity and nissans. When you tap it one or more lights may come on or you might have to check it with a test light. If its not that then possibly a light switch or bcm problem. All of the parts are interconnected so you will probably need a wiring diagram if tapping the DRL module doesnt work. ---
