Jeep dash lights flickered when started but car runs fine. Parking brake light on dash doesn't work after dash lights flickered. Also with the flickering lights is the head lights. After it flickers for a little the engine light stays on but everything seems to be fine. Look at the picture it explains it better

I DID NOT SEE A PICTURE. ONLY A QUESTION YOU SUBMITTED TO A DIFFERENT FORUM

RECENTLY I HAD AN EXPERIENCE WITH A CHEROKEE WITH FLICKERING LIGHTS

TURNS OUT WHEN MY VOLTMETER WAS INTRODUCED TO THE BATTERY THE VOLTAGE WAS JUMPING UP AND DOWN BETWEEN NORMAL VOLTAGE AND WELL OVER 16 VOLTS

HAPPENING SO FAST THE VOLTMETER COULD NOT CHANGE READINGS FAST ENOUGH

TURNS OUT THE ALTERNATOR WAS BAD, REALLY, THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR INSIDE OF IT. STILL, THEY NEEDED ANOTHER ONE. A POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORE MAY TEST YOUR BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR AS A FREE SERVICE

AS FAR AS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, A POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORE CAN RETRIEVE THE CODES, NORMALLY THIS IS A FREE SERVICE. WHEN YOU GET THE CODES. WRITE 'EM DOWN, THE EXACT NUMBERS (LIKE P0171, AS AN EXAMPLE). NOT SOMEONE'S INTERPRETATION OF WHAT THEY MEAN, YOU MAY HAVE MORE THAN ONE CODE

BRING YOUR CODES BACK HERE, WE MAY BE ABLE TO HELP YOU FIGURE OUT THEIR MEANINGS

Have it scanned to see if your tpim module is screwing up. It may well be.

Ok the only codes that it's throwing is
U1403
U1411
The engine light went off today and everything is normal. But it keeps happening it's the 3 time in 2 months I would like to figure it out. I also moved my key around to see if the ignition switch was acting up and it's fine.

These two codes are for fuelreadings implausible but can be a cluster module problem so have a pro see if his scanner can find a problem on the cluster module.

All this happens when my dash lights and head lights flicker. It's at too much of random times. The engine light went off and reads the fuel fine.
