My brother in law's viper is doing some funny electrical stuff. It almost looks like an electrical short but im not sure. All of the lights (dash, tail and head) seem to flicker. they never go dead just flicker. his tail light will go from normal to having the brake light on. At one point on a past ride, the brake light was stuck on for a while. Reving the motor doesnt seem to change anything either. Where should we start to look.

02 viper with elec start and reverese added...
 

JD im sure obvious but did you make sure all your connections are good from your e start install? I know how tight it is to work in that footwell area, elizabeths gave me some trouble and it was a bad connection.

Will check connections tomorrow i think...
 
Hey JD.. The wiring under the motor is the problem area.. I ran my wiring through rubber tubing.. I didnt have a problem before but did that for extra protection.. That was 5yrs ago and rubber tube is still great condition.. Food for thought if you are checking wiring..
