Raz Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 On my auto diesel EP91 when you put it into drive and switch the sidelights/headlights on and put it in " D "(drive) the indicator and some other lights on the instrument cluster begin flickering on and off? but them flickering doesn't cause the actuall indicators(outside the car) to flicker (The flashing is as if the hazard lights have been turned on, but they are not.)Any ideas whats up?I been driving like that tonight and it hasn't caught fire YET.

Well it does but you can hear it struggle.I approached a give way, looked to my right a car was coming (completely forgot i'm in a diesel starlet) and put my foot down, it kicked down and ran out of puff and i didn't go anywhere lolI will check cables and alternator cables at the weekend but untill then if someone has pointers then please. also need to check the fuses.
