Spent $80 on a dash cam after weird things kept happening in my car at night
So about two months ago, I started noticing my interior lights would flicker randomly while I was driving late on back roads near Salem... then one night my radio turned itself on at 3am and woke me up. I bought a cheap $80 dash cam with parking mode to catch whatever was going on. It recorded my car's dome light blinking on and off for 20 minutes straight with no one around. Has anyone else had electrical gremlins like this that turned out to be nothing supernatural, just a dying battery or bad ground?

Your radio turning on by itself at 3am would have made me throw my keys out the window.

Nah, I totally get why you'd freak out but honestly I think it would just creep me out more than make me run. Like throwing the keys out the window seems like an extra step you'd regret later when you gotta go to work. I'd probably just sit there frozen for a minute trying to figure out if it was a ghost or a wiring issue. Once I realized it was probably just a loose connection or a timer glitch I'd feel dumb for even worrying. But yeah the 3am part is what gets me too.
