Default electrical problem...

Everytime that I turn on my lights or corner lights or even if my radiator fan comes on, my air fuel gauge messes up and is usually messed up until I restart the car... The connections on the gauge are secure and not grounded out anywhere, I've been messing with this problem for a while now and can't seem to figure out what it is. I've tried running the gauge directly to the battery and the problem is still there... Is there something wrong with my alternator or something...I can't figure this out... please help...

How about all the grounds for your alternator, engine/transmission-to-chassis, everything. The signal from your O2 sensor is not very high voltage, so if it's local ground floats too much it'll get flaky.
