I replaced my knock sensor and cleaned my TB and IACV today. I took the car out tonight for a little fun and found that at WOT, my dash lights flicker for a split second. I think the lights that flickered were the e-brake light and oil light. Anyone know why this is? I replaced my alternator last week too.

i know flickering brake light/battery light is usually when alternator /battery is on its way out.
Check our oil level or check the oil pressure switch connection.

 

do the big 3 grounds, and check the amps on your altenator, that sounds like the problem

 

My grounds are ghetto-rigged ATM. I will secure them tomorrow. Will also have the techs at Autozone check my alternator and battery. Looks like I'll have to put the car on jacks and take a look at the oil pressure sender unit. Hasn't been replaced yet and I hear the OEM unit blows goats and small animals.

My ghetto-rigged grounds were the issue. Corrected it and now, my WOT run are without issue.

I was actually just going to suggest your grounds. That might actually be the reason why you're car dumped on you a couple days ago around that turn.

E-brake+VOLT light typically indicates a charging malfunction. You got an E-brake+Oil light which I've never heard of before.

 

when i press on the brake a little harder then normal, i get the oil light flickers...doesnt turn on..but just flickers..sometimes faintly...other times brightly...when i press on the gass again to start moving...it goes away....still no clue what it is
