Flickering Headlights & dash lights

[Little6pack]

Last night was the 1st time in 1 year since I drove the GN in the DARK.
I was using a dark counrty road when
I noticed my headlights & dash lights flickering
while cruising 30 to 40 mph.
It almost looked like they were gonna cutout.

All that has been done so far is a new Hot wire kit & I swapped in a temp factory radio while my original was out getting fixed.

Sounds like grounds. Check and clean your headlite grounds.......wires behind headlites or just keep driving in the daytime.

Sounds like the regulator in the alternator is going.

is there a way the regulator can be tested?

Let's not skip the obvios
loose light switch plug
bad light switch


do they dim or go OFF and On?
If they dim, it's a voltag/ground problem
If off and on, the common item = the switch
