This is very annoying, possibly dangerous as it can happen in the middle of a lane change and I can't tell is other exterior lights are affected as well.
Then within a minute or two, everything returns to normal. Startup is always normal.
I'll check the faults.

There was an occupancy sensor fault in the passenger side safety module. cleared. we'll see
Turns out whenever I disconnect the battery when SmartTop is active, I get the same set of errors. They can be cleared with a good fault reader. To avoid, I need to remember to inactivate smart top before doing any work on the car.
