Remline Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I have started to notice that the outside lights on my Journey are pulsating when at idle. I have not noticed it while the engine is above idle. I turned off the Mygig and temp control system but it does not seem to help. I also covered up the auto sensor to make sure that it was not getting some wierd reflection. Anyone else having this problem? I am tempted to contact the dealer but...

But I know that some Grand Caravan owner have the same problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdeveau Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 The only time I've noticed it, is when I use my power windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaines Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 I have the same problem and my Journey only has 2100kms on it. It must be a normal thing. I think that if I took it into the dealer they would look at me funny say something just to make me happy and kick me out the door. Has anyone out there found a solution to this? I used to own a 1998 Saturn SL2 and had the same problem. I replaced the alternator - no change. I then changed the battery and that is what made a difference. But I can't think that my battery would be shot after only owning the vehicle for a month or so. The manufacture date is 12/09. So I wouldn't think that it the battery is the problem, but hey, you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batteries are mass produced, so if it is the battery, it should still be under the 12/12 warranty. Everything is covered for 12 months or 12k miles whatever comes first.
