Okay…I’m back to the original problem that had me questioning the generator. I have since confirmed that the generator is working well and charging as it should.

When driving at night, after about 5 to 10 minutes, the lights start flashing on off…somewhat randomly.

Since it is all of the lights…ie everything connected to the light switch and nothing else electrical, I believe the issue must be with the light switch itself.
To clarify, the headlights, tail lights instrument lights all blink). The dome lights and other electrical items continue working fine.

Could it be something as simple as the contacts being dirty resulting in the vibration of the car making and breaking contact? I can’t think of what else it might be.

Thoughts appreciated.
