I locked my car then unlocked my car with the key I started it then the lights started flashing how do I stop it from doing this. No key fab the car starts and runs but lights flash for a little while then stop. If you open the passenger door while running the lights start flashing again. If I turn on head lights you can hear the flasher going but lights do not strobe.

I hate to say it, but you need to have it checked by a dealer to determine what is causing the problem. Anything I tell you is just a guess.

Some system flashes the indicators, in this case the headlights, when doors are opened and can be turned off by reprogramming the system. However I am not able to find any reference to this feature in the fatory system.

If the security system is after market, you would need to find the instructions from the suppluier.

Otherwise, as Jacobandnickolas mentioned, you need the dealer to assist you.
