JW speaker flicker on sidelights only
As per post, my JW speakers flicker only when the sidelights are on - they're completely fine with the headlight and also on main beam. Battery is fully charged, and thoughts?

Also should my standard sidelights still be on/connected when the evos sidelights are on?

I disconnected the standard sidelights, but the evos still flickered when on sidelight mode....

Any thoughts appreciated! 2002MY Defender 90 H/T

check the voltage of the flickering one vs the good one. Discovery 5 td6 HSE Stornoway Gray Outback Engineering Limited Edition

I'm guessing your vehicle has dim dip? If so that will be providing reduced voltage to the lamps with the master switch in the side lights position, causing them to flicker.

To stop it happening you need to disable dim dip by unplugging the dim dip resistor. It is under the bonnet near the brake master cylinder i believe.

Hope that helps Thumbs Up 2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon
