Default Major Ground Strap ISSUE

OK guys, here's the problem. First off I have a constant SECURITY light but It shows no codes. Second, I've got flickering lights. If I go around a left hand bumpy turn, all my dash lights and headlights will flash off with the bumps...very bad problem to me, I hate it. But a right hand turn NEVER does it. Strange but that's how it works. Got to be a ground strap somewhere right??

Check the ground location under the driver's door frame rail. Also, check your negative cable from your battery, could have a bad screw or a bad cable.

Oh, if it's any black wire on the chassis, wiggle it to see what happens when the engine is off, lights are on.
