Lights easily dim...

[Dennisk]

my car interior lighting is easily dim when i push down the winding windows button or turning on headlights.... does it mean that i need a voltage stabliser? i did about 6 points grounding....but no voltage stab...

how old is ur battery? you got a volt meter to check?

[Hazpower]

isit low batt? u got volt meter?

[Dennisk]

batt less than 1 year... voltage is about 13.1~13.2 when idling with air -con on....

[Dennisk]

Bro,.ur lights dim onli when u switch on ur headlights, or using power stuff like radio...? right? sounds familiar..

I suspect it might be the alternator.,,;leadin to weak batt..go hav a good check up, voltmeter willl tell but if ur crankig is less than 13-14v,,it may be alternator..if u go to a reputable electrical workshop, they will isolate to check if its batt or alternator..did u use any lightweight pulley?

Groundin cables or VS has nouting to do wz this.

 

Hope u sort out ur prblms soon!

[Dennisk]

yup...done lightweight pulley...

[Guest66]

ahh..see?...Before ur lightweight pulley mod,, did u experience this? Put back ur stock pulley & see waht happens?

I suspect it's an inertia problem..

[Dennisk]

oh...so i think is the pulley...but anyway the rest are not affected...should i remove it?
