BUMP

 

C'mon people is it my battery or alternator?They dont fliker on or off its more like they dim out then get bright again.It seems everything does it Instrument, dash headlights dome light i really dont know about tail lights yet ! anyone know anything about this?

 

sounds like a loose connection somewhere.Check around your fuse block.

 

yup... if thats not the problem. den ur expletiveed. lol,...


so no dash lights at all???? car start or wat? if so.. best guess could b some relay,

 

common problem. my 95 and 97 do the same thing. and im too lazy to fix it. usually i just hit the dash and it lights up. so its prolly just a loose connection.

 

Well my car starts and all I drive no problems so far! Thing is that I notice this is when im at a stop.They don't necessarily turn off they just get dim then bright dim then bright and on and on...And this happens to evrything so that means at night while driving and I come to a stop the headlights the ac controls the cluster even dome light if I were to open the door would get dim then bright etc.Please help me out guys

DAMM i cant believe no one has ever had this problem.

 

how badly do they dim? is it just a little noticeable or enough that you cant see at night? a little but is normal b/c when the cars just idling its not charging as much as when the engines at a driving rpm. if its bad, it could be a wearing alt. battery, cables, grounds. basically any part of the charging system. you could take the car to autozone and have them test the battery and alt.

 

Its not to the point where you cant see!They dont turn off its just that its freakin annoying when you look at your cluster and it starts blinking and ****!Im very **** when it comes to how my cars run and i always like that everything is perfect to the smallest detail!

 

on my eg6 they dont turn on at all !!?

 

you could always get a high output alt, or accessory battery to store extra power when its not charging. like people do with high demand audio systems. imo it is annoying but i deal with it.
