Information on Intermittent Dimming (Flickering) of Headlamps and/or Instrument Panel Lighting - Normal Characteristic/No Service Required

Subject:Information on Intermittent Dimming (Flickering) of Headlamps and/or Instrument Panel Lighting -- Normal Characteristic/No Service Required

Models:2000-2004 Saturn L-Series Vehicles

Attention: Fixed Operations Manager and Technician


Purpose

The purpose of this bulletin is to inform Saturn Retailers of normal headlamp and instrument panel illumination characteristics.

Customers may comment on sporadic dimming (flickering) of the headlamps and/or instrument cluster illumination. The flickering may occur intermittently as a result of transient current loads on the electrical system during normal vehicle operation; however, at no time do the headlamps turn completely off. This is considered a normal operating characteristic.

No service is required for this condition.
