That's one odd glitch I've never heard of.

Actually the TC unit was the only thought that came to mind for me as well. I resoldered mine a while ago when I had some funky issues. If you can manage to get to the dayum box and crack it open give it a whirl. It's hidden quite nicely. If you're close to a yard it would likely be easier to just pull another one and swap it. Of course, this is assuming it actually has anything to do with your problem. ??

It's a little box looking deal behind the factory alarm under your dash, it controls your wiper timer, how long your dome/interior lights stay on, seat belt warning, ignition chime ect. if you have a FSM it shows you what all the wires going to and fro are doing. Try looking into that.
