I have a 1993 Buick Century, and I believe I have an electrical problem with it. When I start the car it runs fine. But when i go to press the break, the interior lights dim. Also when i am using the left turn signal, it flickers very quickly and the whole dashboard also flickers. The right turn signal works fine and I cant seem to find a problem with the fuses. Any ideas??

Hi:
The rapid flashing sounds like a bulb is bad. Check the socket to see if it's corroded and look for a burned out bulb. Also, check to make sure the body ground (from engine to body) is clean, tight and not damaged.
