Hi my name is Dave and I am experiencing problems with the headlights and dash lights dimming. When this happens the battery light flashes on the dash and at times the needle from the speedometer guage goes down and up and sometimes stays down for a few seconds. The car still runs during all this and this problem isn't continuous though it is progressing. This has been happening now for 2 days. The car starts fine, even when cold.

welcome, I'd have to make sure the battery has a full charge and the connections are good. Next, I'd check the charging system.
