Low battery. Headlights flash when low (strange warning I know).

Charge battery for a good 24 hours or replace with new (and hopefully fully.charged)

Seriously though, it's probably a coincidence, more than likely a wire underneath one of the front seats, plug connector etc. It took me a while to be "AIR BAG" warning light free.
