Weird odometer issue.

[99 sr5 highlander]

I recently wired up an auxiliary fuse box for my lights and while re-connecting the battery I heard some relays click and the lights went on and off and back on again. I thought this was weird because the keys weren't in it. Anyway, I hopped inside and the odometer was flashing with 888888. I drove it all today and it's still doing it. I also tried disconnecting the battery for almost 3 hours and disconected the cable to my fuse box, but It's sill blinking. I am wondering if anybody has had this happen or has any advice. (everything else is working just fine)

Weird. Are the two trip odometers doing the same thing or can you even cycle between the three ODO's? If it's all three or no cycle possible suggests something is fried, if just main ODO suggests some kind of tamper-alarm. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to fix either.

The two trip odometers do the same thing, I can still cycle through them, but they all have the dreaded 8s.

Bump, anybody else have any suggestions? I'd really rather not take it to a shop and have them throw my money at it.
