|  Faulty Favorit electrics Hi,this is my first thread on this site so i hope it makes some sense! The Skoda in question is a 1995 Favorit GLXie 1.3 and the electrics are playing up. The fun begins when you switch on the lights at dusk and they begin to flicker at idle. I have tested the battery and the alternator for drops in current and they seem healthy enough. My next thought is to try an auto electrician though it could be pricey. I suspect if the Police saw it, i could expect points or a fine at the least. Anyone got any good ideas out there? |

| Re: Faulty Favorit electrics Thanks for the tip! I have picked up another Favorit for fifty quid of the same model and have swapped the alternator over; problem solved! Now my reversing lights have stopped working and will check out the fuse box like the other guy is doing! |
