normal as well.

yep, dont panic. its the check control sending test pulses. regular bulbs dont register the pulse visually, but leds and ccfls dont require much power to light, so the pulse registers as a flash.

Sadly its normal, and i havnt heard of anyone / thing that has managed to remove them yet
