    I need some help here with electric issues, been having this for while now. Can't seem to figure it out.

    Here are my issues:

    1. My cluster gauge backlight will get brighter and dim.
    2. My Voltage meter on my obdII will fluctuated from like 14v to 12.56v when idle and driving.
    3. My AC blower will turn up and down while driving and idle.
    4. My dual battery gauge goes up and down with the voltage meter reading.


    The weird thing is it only happens when it is hot outside or when engine is fully warmed up.

    I have check my ground wires to the battery and even sandpaper the main terminal.

    should i resurface the positive terminal with sandpaper? when i mean sandpaper i have one of these. images_8e714265cb272bc4d68d6b8359da02a78e921cec.jpg
