So as me and wifey are driving back from Northern CA, our lights start flickering. not only do the headlights start flashing, but the dash lights, the overhead lights, and the CD player lights...weird. loose wire maybe?

Or charging system. Have it checked. May be the alternator regulator going.

Maybe Kanye West paid a visit to your car...

"Flashing.... Lights, lights, lights, lights..." :heh:


(but yeah, i'd check the alternator/battery myself on this one.)

Did it flicker when you use an appliance in the car? like open a window, use the cd player? Try checking the car manual for where the fuse for the internal lights for the car, maybe the fuse is about to blow.
