Thanks, Ralf. I apparently left the blinkers on overnight 'cause the parking
lights came on every time I connected my battery charger. I suspected
something more involved when I couldn't stop the lights in any switch
position (I left the charger on for only a few seconds each time for fear I
was gonna' blow something out; it was making an unusal sound... so I
thought.) In any event, I drove the car to a mechanic friend who checked out
the voltage and found the car to be charging just fine. Finally shut it off
then restarted and everything has been working properly since.
