Default Mobile phone chargers & rapidly flashing indicators

Hi guys!

All the best for 2012.

About 6 or 7 years ago, I had a Nokia charger plugged into my ciggie lighter & I realized that it was causing my indicators to flash rapidly as if a bulb had blown.

I got another charger & never had the problem since or with others (I'm presently using a Samsung), so I just chalked it up to a bad charger.

However, one of my workmates told me about 2 weeks ago, that his girlfriend's Almera did the same thing with a BB charger.

My question is - why would this happen since the ciggie lighter is not on the same circuit as the indicators?.

I just checked both circuit and looks like the "Combination Flasher Unit". which controls the lights, and the "Cig Lighter" share the same grounds (Ground #44 and #43)
