For the past 2 days i've been experiencing a weird thing: after driving for while in hot weather the parking lights, cornering lights and ACC panel start flickering. Car idles with a slightly above normal vibration. After the engine cools down everything is back to normal.
I checked and clean battery terminals/cables, removed and cleaned 60 Amp fuses from the box. Battery(Intetstate, less than 3 years old) shows 12.6V in static (didn't check under load or while cranking), at idle i am getting 12.8-13.3 V. I did not perform a voltage drop test on cables but will try it tomorrow.
Couldn't reach a negative cable terminal near transmission to check it and clean it.
The car was in the body shop a few months back - tailgate, bumper and ligjts on tailgate replaced.
Forgot to say that it is 9-5 Aero wagon 2005.
Does snyone have any idea what might cause it? What to check next? I will be checking all the ground cables and wiring on the tailgate just in case. Again, it is happening only when engine is hot.
Thank you,
Denis
