Electrical Problem
Alright so when my car is on, everything pulses. What I mean by pulse is that every single light gets bright then dim then bright then dim really really quickly. Also, the battery gauge on my dash goes up and down very quickly. It probably only moves about 1/8 of the whole gauge.
Does anyone know what this is? If you need to I can get a video of the gauge and the lights tonight. I just got a new alternator like 6 months ago so I don't think that's it... Thanks!!

Re: Electrical Problem
is the flickering in time with the engine speed? could be a short or ground issue.

Re: Electrical Problem
Sounds like your alternator is going again, either that or a bad ground some where.

Re: Electrical Problem
Check the tensioner out, they're pretty low to the ground and I've replaced my neighbors a couple of times because they'll pick up slush and alot of water and make the spring weak.
