My check engine light has been coming on intermittently for some time now. Just recently the battery(amp) light has been coming on too. They only flicker for a second or two then go back off for a while. Not sure what's causing it, maybe bumps in the road. Just the other day, both happened to come on when I came to a stop, and my fuel pump shut off, no priming or nothing. After I tried to crank a couple times the lights went off and the pump got power again. Any ideas what might be wrong?

Thanks,

Zak

Pull the codes and see what the codes are.

The battery light normally means the alternator is on it's way out.
There's a possibility they could somehow be both be related to each other but idk how. Just get the codes pulled and see what you got.
 
Sorry, I forgot to mention, there are no codes, even when I run the engine and have the light flicker, still no codes. Either that or my eec connector doesn't work.
 
Does the car burp when the lights pop on? I wonder if your ignition switch is on the outs and might cut on and off real quick.
 
No it doesn't burp, it keeps running smooth while the lights flicker, but it they usually only flicker while im driving, if the car is sitting still idling, it never flickers. I was thinking maybe a ground somewhere is lose and when it hits bumps it's doing that. But even if I was right, I have no idea where to start looking.

I hope it's not the ignition switch, I just put a brand new one in not even 2 months ago.
