Default Lights Flicker

Have any of you had problems with your lights Flickering? Mine have done since day one on my '99. I have checked the grounds and the wires, I can't find a problem. I do have the PIAA ultra white bulbs but all of the lights flicker not just the head lights. Any Ideas?

Not sure, our 99 Vette did the same thing. Put a new alternator on it (warranty) and that took care of it. It was a charging issue, they didn't flicker, but more of a gradual dim/back to normal effect.

I actually read a TSB that called this condition "normal". Doesn't seem normal to me, but if everything seems to be charging fine and the battery's good, it's OK according to the General. Guess it's up to you if you wanna try swappin an alternator out.

Thanks.. Ya these dont go completely out they just dim a little. It is like the vibration from the road is effecting them some how.

Thanks
