CHECKED CHARGING SYSTEM. REPLACED BATTERY, ALTERNATOR GOOD. CAR RUNS GOOD. EVERTHING ELSE IS NORMAL

are the rest of the lights flickering as well? when i see this i watch the interior light for flickering along with the dash. if yes use a bar graph meter to watch the alternator out put. amps must be read. the voltage may be consistent (at the meter level) but all it takes is an amp jump. this may be an alternator issue or something as off the wall as a door lock actuator. another quick way to help eliminate the alternator is to pull the fuse. if the flickering stops then either the alternator is bad or something is pulling it down. another thing to look for is a pattern. is the flickering a constant pattern or random. i would also feel each relay as it's flickering. you may feel it vibrating or hear one buzzing. is this flickering an alarm issue? i've seen alarms cause issues like this. check the grounds on the block, body and under dash.
