Blinking Lights?
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
At night, on nice steady highway runs, I've noticed my lights sort of blinking or flickering. They don't actually go out - it's more like the brightness drops for a split second. This affects all lights: instrument, headlights, radio & temperature windows, and even the overhead courtesy lights. All flicker at the same time.
Sound familiar to anyone? Am I expecting total darkness some night soon?
Thanks!

-Battery connections. Also the cable crimp on the battery terminal might need to be re-crimped in a vise. The crimp problem is more prevalent on 2003+ cars.
-Megafuse connections near the spare tire for loose nuts on heavy cable lugs.
-Power connection on fuseboxes (heavy cable bolted to each fusebox for loose nut ).
For safety from shorts, disconnect the battery before putting a wrench on power feeds!

It could be grounds, but judging from past posts, it is loose nuts on the power feeds that typically cause the most problems along with the battery terminal crimps.
