Also at night I see the dash lights flicker bright to dim (not too bad) and
then bright again. No problem noticed at the headlights. Could it be the
voltage regulator going on or off? I have a stock voltage regulator
installed. I also have a electronic one. Should I swap out the installed
old style regulator? A professional rebuilt generator is installed. My
battery is fairly new and around 12.45 vdc or better.
Check the charging voltage at the battery at medium rpms (2000 to 2500
rpms). You're looking for 14.1 to 14.5 volts. If less than 14.0, replace the
voltage regulator with a genuine Bosch unit.
