Mine is intermittent at this point, but searches lead me to believe the ASCD switch is the culprit.

I was surprised to see how many 370Zs have had this issue. That's not a part that should go bad with that frequency, especially in low mile cars.

25k on mine.

Check the switches on the clutch and the brake. One of them has gotten loose and is causing the blinky blinky....

define "Loose". Isn't it just where the switch goes bad? Is there a separate switch on both pedals? Figured it was on the clutch pedal only....

There are actually 2 switches, one on the clutch and one on the brake. This is where the FSM will come in handy, it will help you identify which one is which on the clutch and brake pedal and it will have directions on how to adjust them.

Given the mileage on your car, it's doubtful that the switches have gone bad. I've got 71k on my Z, and I've not had an issue, but I've had other cars that have had this problem. In every case, it has been the switch on either the brake pedal or the clutch pedal that has gotten loose (either backed out or the jam nut has loosened up) or the rubber pad in either pedal has fallen off. Good luck.
