headlight flickering??

Postby simins » Thu Feb 06, 2014 11:40 am

Hi guys im new to the forum so please forgive me if this has been posted before..

i recently purchased a MY04 liberty gt and i have noticed that while driving with my lights on the passenger light looks like its flickering really fast at the edge of the beam....

when the car is idle its doesnt happen so i was thinking maybe something is loose but im not really sure

i am not sure why its been doing this and its starting to annoy me as i am going to do HID swap and i want to make sure what the problem is fixed first before i do so

any advice would be much appreciated

Take the globe from the drivers side headlight out and put it in the passenger side, that will eliminate the dud globe theory for you. If it happens only when you're driving then it more than likely will be a dirty contact or bad ground.

Install the HID kits and see what happens.
