Gen 3 amber parking lights flashing

I tested with optima dh7 battery last night but has same flickering problem. Our dealer ordered headlight with warranty yesterday and will replace next weekend. Please let us know if replacement fixes the issue next week.

Did you get it fixed?

I agree I will be taking it to the dealer. I know I don’t have a choice it has to be fixed.
I had a great tech that I would trust doing anything but he retired years ago. I need to find a new “guy”

did you take it to the dealer?

Same deal here. Passenger side flickers when I turn it on for about 20 seconds then stops.

Passenger side for me.

Update: Truck is still at dealership....Been over a week now. The headlight wasn't the only issue, but its sitting at the body shop and has been there for a while now.

Ok, thanks for the update.
Drivers side for mine is still flickering initially, then as far as I know it stops, I don’t know what it’s doing as I’m driving.

That’s funny….I have two video’s of mine flickering plus other times when I didn’t record it when I first took delivery… but now I don’t see it doing it? I can’t imagine it just fixed itself? I did have a conversation with the GM at the dealership about a week ago and I sent him the video of the flickering and asked if any other trucks they sold are having the same problem. I just don’t want to take to the dealer and have them say “sorry I can’t fix it if it not flickering” He said he would have his best service tech watch the video and call me if he has ever seen this? Or has any idea what’s going on. I haven’t heard back from him yet. I’ll keep everyone posted if I end up taking it in to them.

well well well.. Seems to be we have the blues here.. oh wait.. there was a code orange who chimed in..
I just took delivery on the 29th, built in March.. Atlas blue... and the pass side is winking at me. at least that's what my GF and I came up with to make me feel a bit better bout it..lol..

subscribed and waiting..

don't want to bring into dealer, but it's starting to look like we may have to.
I am going to try the charge/tending thing first as well..

So is the consensus that it only does it with the parking lights? The parking lights are brighter. When in drive mode they dim to 10% I believe. So it could be that the lights can’t handle the amount of power going to them when in parking mode. You can adjust the brightness with forscan. Some folks had this issue and reducing the brightness stopped the flicker. If anyone wants to try the reduced brightness I can get you the values. Not saying it’s the fix but an option.
