Power surge?

Power surge?

Postby 07z71 [OP] » Jun 10 2011, 8:13am

Hey all,
So I noticed something wierd tonight.
I was standing at a light, waiting for my turn to make a left turn, had the signal on and had the dome-lights on, noticed that they were flickering while the turn signals were working.

Why? Is it normal?

Thanks in advance.
