What could this be??

after doing some racing tonight, i noticed that when i would get on the throttle that my guage lihts would flash really bright... it was dark so they were already on but they would falsh brighter, and this would happen evertime i got on the throttle hard... i didnt notice if any of the other interior lights were doing the same because i was mainly focusing on the gueages... what do you think that could be? short? fuse?

i wouldnt have a clue, perhaps your imagination?
it could be your alternator isnt charging like it should be, and when you hit the throttle the revs bring the alt back to sufficiant charge??

nissan and their electrical gremlins

i know at idle my dash dims and when i rev the motor or go with traffic the dash gets brighter a lil bit more. that could be my UDP undriving my accesories or i have a low charge batt. or my audio system

its lots of things can cause it
