    Exclamation WTF is Wrong??

    Driving to Work today, and all of a sudden my "Battery Charge" "Cooling Fan" and "E-Brake" Lights all start Flashing! It Dosnt happen All the Time, only once i shift into 3rd. It dosnt do it in 1st and 2nd gears just 3rd, 4th and 5th, and when I Rev it more, They get Brighter, but Flickering! The Battery Connections look fine, Could it be the Alternator? It dosnt SEEM to lose any Power, But im not fully sure. After work it Started up fine!

    I Kinda Want to go to Race City Tonight, but If my Cars acting up , im not sure if i should? This Sucks.

    Maybe your alt. belt is a little loose and only starts slipping at higher revs, hence the coming on in 3rd gear thing......
