Ok, this is a stock , auto 92 ex.
I have been experiencing a flickering battery light lately(havent had the car more than a month). I checked and tested the battery and its connections and everything is good, clean tight terminals. I havent tested the alternator because I havent found time. The car does start straight up on the first turn.
So here's the story....the battery light only flickers when i'm lead footingit form either 1st to 2nd gear, 2nd to 3rd gear, 3rd to 4th gear and all of the above. Once i'm at cruising speeds (45mph or above) it doesnt flicker regardless of how hard I lay on the gas pedal.
My observation proves that it only flickers when the rpms goes up to 3000 rpms or more before shifting. If I drive normal and the tranny shifts before 3000 rpms the battery light never flickers
It even made me jump to the conclusion that the battery light is wired as a "shift light" but the car was completely stock when i got with no mods.
This happens when the radio is on or off(also the same for headlight). The car just has a cd player, no subs or amps.
I find this strange but it might be something simple and normal to others out there.
All insights are welcomed
