Like me, you may have a bad KVM.

Diagnosis confirmed. They replaced and configured the KVM, and all is well. They also did the K410 (fuel canister hose) and K405 (service indicator) updates.



Is the service indicator function controlled by the ECU or some other module? I haven't lost any power, so I'm guessing it's not controlled by the engine ECU.

Service message is in the Instrument Cluster (IPC) so they would not have had any reason to touch the PCM.

Its super random and intermittent, but it drives me crazy when it happen.
Mine did this after a service visit. Seems dealer reset EVERY configurable setting - including AHB being set to driving on the 'LEFT'...! So check your settings after a dealer visit... My alarm chirp was turned off (must be default setting).
