    up and on... I think it was trying to charge the battery(fast idle) because I shut it off quickly.. disconnected the cables for about 5 minutes and then it was back to normal...

    my car has done exactly that once before. when my clutch was going out I put the car away for about a month and when I started it the engine went to 3000 rpms and then calmed down after about a minute. Never had it happen again and its been about 3 years. Definitely weird

    Next time, if you need the lights up to work on something, disconnect the battery.

    Yes, but common sense would tell you to

    - Disconnect the battery when working on the car.

    - Especially if you need the headlights to be up for whatever you're doing. Who the hell leaves the lights on with the engine off on purpose??

    And don't cry about not doing it because you're worried about your radio presets.

    they can be up but not on.... turn your head lights all the way on then go to your fog/dtrl... they will stay up...
