Yeah ok there is a freakin' ghost in my car. It won't mess with my electrical for a long time just to get me feeling like the problem is gone, and then whoosh it comes back twice as annoying. Basically sometimes the lights will flicker when I hit the brakes, and the wierd thing is that it does it regardless of what accessories are running (ei heat, ww defrost, cd). Once it starts doing this, if you turn off the ignition, the power will die for a second, and then come back on OR it will go off and make a loud clicking noise with flashing lights like it is trying to come back on but there is a short somewhere. Usually sometime during this period the gauges will spin wildly and it will go back to normal. I have a good battery and when I had my old battery it did the same thing. I'm going to get the cables cleaned and checked, but does anyone else have this problem or have any ideas about what else it might be? Its wierd because most of the time it works perfectly with no dimming or wierdness. Perhaps I need an old priest and a young priest?
