What causes your dashboard lights to flicker?

Image result for 2012 Jeep Liberty dash Light Flickering

Most likely, flickering dash lights are due to problems with the alternator. In addition to recharging the battery, the alternator is in control of running the electrical components in your vehicle. If the alternator is failing, it may not be able to steadily supply enough current to all the components.

Can a bad battery cause dash lights to flicker?

A dying battery can be one cause for your dashboard lights flickering. The battery plays a key role in powering your car's electrical system. If the battery isn't working properly, it could cause the dash lights to flicker.
