my dash lights as well as my head lights dim in and out constantly when the engine is started. Now the red battery symbol is flashing sometimes. What does all this mean and what should I do? I've noticed this problem for the past several months.

check battery for loose connections, and corrosion... also, have it tested... if it tests good, then verify that your alternator is putting out around 14.4 volts to the battery.
