Default lights flickering.

for a friend, he has a 99 SI. He replaced the gauges and now the lights go on and off once in a while. it could be off, then just come on while driving. he checked the connections and they are really tight. anyone have any ideas or a link to an old thread with a similar problem? nothing on search.

nope just the lights, sometimes it comes on, sometimes not. sometimes it just goes off while driving and vice versa.

make sure he chose a good ground point for the gauges...

what power source did he tap for the lights?
