replace the fuse for FLASHER -
make sure hazard switch is turned off correctly as this cuts flasher circuit
check trailer for short

Had the exact same problem when I had my ED Futura. Borrowed a plasterboard trailer from Bunnings to cart some timber home and ever since then I encountered the very same problem you are experiencing. Never did find out why it did it. I ended up trading it in for a EL Fairmont wagon.

cruise control fault was fixed after replacing the clock spring at a wasted cost of 330 to find no difference it was finally fixed by replacing the actual horn/airbag piece on steering wheel 40 from wreckers
cheers
