A couple weeks ago my battery died, but being the original battery from when the car was made I guessed it would go soon anyway I jumped it and it has worked fine, but about two weeks ago while driving my headlights started flickering and my fuel gage, speedo metre and rev counter lights started flickering and the dials when mad as well so the next day we bought and swapped over the battery for a new one. But my car is still having the same problems iv been to an auto electrician and he cant find the problem please help I need to know asap

It really sounds like the charging system isn't putting out enough voltage and/or amperage. With all the lights, a/c fans on high, high beams on, etc, there should be no less than 13.5 volts at the battery
