Battery Size??
For some of you guys who have read the "Blown Cap??" Tread, I was thinking what if i replaced the battery with a bigger one. Will that stop the Lights from flickering when the bass hits? I know you may think that its a grounding problem but i dont think it is.

If you're running a 140A Alt. with your amps your lights shouldn't be dimming. Don't just replace the battery, have it load tested, if it's good move on. You engine it's idling at some horrendously low RPM is it? Have you done the big three upgrade yet? That does the trick most of the time. Don't under estimate the cheapness of the stock wiring.

Well the battery is brand new so i wont worry about that then. No i havent did the big 3 upgrade yet, just trying to trouble shoot everthing before i go ahead and do that. But what if that doesnt fix the problem??
