1994 Nissan Altima 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

ok so ive been reading that when these lights on it is commonly a alternator. Well I bought one a couple months ago and put it in. Also the battery is good and it has been tested by three places. It hasnt done this yet on my car. But today I put on brand new breaks and rotors. When I got finished I decided to go out for a drive. As I would get around 50 mph the lights would stay dim and fade in and out. Now when I stopped to turn they would go off all the way untill I startred to get around 50 again. Maybe it has somethin to do with the breaks. Please help

Its got nothing to do with your brakes-check the battery and connections to inlcude the belt and wiring behind the alternator if okay-Get the alternator load tested again

Alright I looked at the wiring on the altenator and the harness that plugs into it was loose. It wasnt clipped in all of the way.I plugged it back in and it is firmly in there. Do you think that could have been the reason the lights were apearing?
