The flickering started last night. I've taken the alternator to be checked and it was fine. Optima battery 4 months old and was fine. All ground wires were checked and they are all in good condition making good ground. The maintanance on the truck is 100%. The engine has a slight stumble and the flickering matches the engine rpm. As I accelerate sodoes the flickering almost to the point of going away. While the engine is not running the lights are perfect. Im thinking the ignition module but can't find any info on the net about this module. Thanks

Load test the battery for 10secs with ignition disable and with a use of a voltmeter on the battery, if it cannot hold 9.6 volts or better replace it.

The battery was perfect. Stayed at 11.59 for the load test. Do you have any suggestion.
