battery light flickering
just noticed on my way home tonight that my battery light was flickering on and off. i would sit at light and it would go away and then i would move and it will flicker. i just put in a new battery last year. i don't know if it has to do with the tt setup and some of the electronics i put in. just wondering if anyone has some ideas.

sounds like an alternator going out. battery light comes on when voltage is low while the vehicle is running. the battery is essentially for starting the vehicle and storing electrical power, the alternator is for constant power output and charging the battery while the vehicle is running. a loose electrical connection and/or battery problem is possible also. most shops can perform an electrical systems check which checks the battery, alternator, starter and electrical components. my shop charges less than $30. hope this helps.

you can get a battery tester online for like $100... if you own several
older cars it's a nice thing to have. esentially tests wat the above poster said.

+1, sounds like an alternator going out. Take out the alternator and bring it to an autozone/pepboys/kragen to get it tested. The test is free.
