Malykaii Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 (I have a similar topic in the bs section, but I could realy use a helping hand, so trying here) In short, I've went through both my new 75amp alt and my spare one. All I have left is my montero 50amp one. (Yes, I plan on buying the 100amp elantra one after thanksgiving) My lights flicker at idle. This didn't happen last time I used this alt. So is it that a carb setup used less power and now that my montero is FI it uses more power than the alt has to offer? I'm assuming this is safe to drive? Need to hit the road for a 3 hour drive tonight. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasQuest Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 It's possible. Have you checked all your grounds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malykaii Posted November 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 I haven't lately, but a few years ago I made sure all was perfectly in order. My logic said it's just too few amps,and with it being thanksgiving and no site traffic here, I hit the road. 300mi later all is well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandY Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 I've had lights flicker from the clips on a fusible link not being snug. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
