2000+ Montero Sport lights flicker
I just purchased a 2001 Montero sport but prior I looked at and test drove close to a dozen of them as i was shopping for one. I noticed 3 Montero Sports including the one I bought all the lights flicker at a steady frequency. The one I bought has a minor flicker but noticable especially at idle seems to be dependent of RPM. The others seems to flicker at a constant frequency at any RPM range.
First thing comes to mind might be a alternator issue but wondering if this is a common problem on Montero Sports since I have experienced this on 3 of them. I have done research which no real answer...most common is probably a alternator issue, some of said its a ground issues, fuse issue or even the light/signal which on the column.
I have had vehicles with alternator issues..but never experienced ones with flickering light symptoms.

first thing I would check would be all the connections to the lights and battery. make sure the terminals aren't corroded and the connections aren't loose. most likely it is a wiring problem or one of your grounds is loose. if that does not fix the problem then get the alternator tested
