Flashing brake lights after bottoming out my car

By Prodegsivic
- Tue Aug 20, 2013 2:47 am #335668 I need a clue. I ramped my car over some large ripples in kansas city and slammed it to the ground after that I have had my brake lights flicker like morse code. My cluster also flickers after I turn my lights off and pull the key. I know it must be some kind of a short but I'm at a loss on where to look. Anyone else had this happen?
