question: my car radio keeps flickering... what is cause?

[theGlove]

in my car, the cd / radio player flickers (ie, it shuts off and restarts) while I'm driving, this happens just recently. Could this be a battery issue or something else?

maybe the power to it is intermittent

hrm sounds like it could be a lose conection or something. Does it hapen mostly when u hit bumps?

bad ground or power?

hmmm well i thought it happens during bumps but it happens radomly. so I'm thinking maybe a loose connection somewhere or a bad battery supply or something with spark plugs??

 

[spidey07]

doubtful it's that complicated unless you are having other eletrical problems.

check the fuse as well and make sure it looks good and is secure.
