Hi guys,

Just carried out the wiring mod to the alternator of my 200 on the weekend. This has cured the headlight/ interior light flickering on cold start/ idle speed but noticed my side lights flicker when on without ignition on or engine running! Anyone come across this?

Many thanks

Chris

Are your sidelights normal 501 bulbs or LED's?

It might be coincidence, but I fitted some LED sidelight bulbs and one started to flicker after a month or so. I put it down to a faulty LED and got a replacment from the shop, but I haven't re-fitted them yet. My normal bulbs are fine.

Hi Frembrit,

The bulbs are all standard, i did have front led lights but one went so i fitted normal bulbs again. The problem is not just on the front though, the rears also do it!

I did the wiring mod a few months ago and don't seem to have any issues. I'll check my lights later.

no flickering on my car. I've no idea what could cause it.
