UrbN 05-02-2003, 01:14 AM I was out driving home one nite, and all of a sudden, my cluster lights started flickering on and off, it did it around 2 or 3 times.. It does that sometimes, but not all the times, and i dont even touch the dimmer switch or anything. I was wondering if you guys have had the same prob before?

Does your HVAC control and other lights turn on and off with cluster? OR just your cluster itself? My 96 does the same thing and this is a very common problem for Nissans. I doubt this is the alternator. If the alternator is bad, all the electricals will become weak (dim lights, slow power windows, slow windshield wipers) and also brake warning lamp will come on. blackNX2k 05-02-2003, 07:40 AM trust me on this one....... its your dimmer switch........ i drove without cluster lights for 3 weeks before i finally replaced it from one that i found in a junkyard on a sentra xe UrbN 05-02-2003, 11:01 AM Originally posted by CarbonBlack200 This is most likely your dimmer switch.

I've seen on the forums a few times about small probs like this.. It's hard to have gods chariot when your HVAC lights go out sometimes... ;) ;) :D eliterit 05-03-2003, 06:39 PM my cluster lights actually got superbright when my alternator went out...
