		Need help, I was driving my car to work and all my dash lights flicker and all my clocks go funny, door locks goes off and the radio goes off as well when I am changing gear, but when not changing gear on a straight road its OK. Taken radio out but still does the same. Check the main fuses there ok and the battery is covered properly. I'm stomped ????

		try cleaning the all earth leads from the battery to the engine and the one to the body these are known to corrode and break a quick test maybe use a jump lead from the battery negative to a earth on the engine block see if it still does it.

		Check the alternator. I had all sorts of electrical problems, airbag lights, etc on a Xantia due to the low voltage coming from the alternator. I used a multimeter and seen the voltage was really low.
