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.
