1990 Ls400 Radio And Lights Dim And Turn Off
Hi I think I may have a problem but I don’t know what to do. I have a 1990 Lexus LS400
Ok when I first start my car whether it is in the evening or morning I have a problem with my headlights dimming and my radio turning off whenever I press the brakes. Every time I press the brakes the lights dim vastly and my radio keeps resetting itself and turning off and on, I also hear a cracking noise in my speakers whenever the radio resets itself. Also it only happens when I first start the car after it has been parked in the cold, either overnight or more than 6 hours. I don’t know what to do and I think it may be the alternator or there may be short somewhere but I don’t know where to start. My battery runs great and everything and the car starts fine.
