Re: Lights flickering and car display going nuts

the alternator check won't work. The alternator field collapses due to vibration while the car is moving. Put a cheap voltmeter across the battery while the car is moving = when the alternator field collapses you will go to battery voltage (12.6V) or less from ~14V+ (charging voltage)

clean off all battery connections and use a dialectric grease (conductive grease).
