hi when i have my stereo on or wiper blades or lights on when i go to use my indicators or if my wiper blades cut in my lights dim down and my dashboard lights dim or flicker also when i use my hazzard lights the dash lights will flash and dim my stero cuts out. it does this during the day when i only have to use indicators and have stereo on. i have changed the internal fuse box as it recommended by a mechanic and had my alternator checked and it is ok. any suggestions

Don't wanna knock your mechanic but did he check the alternator under load ie with heated screen and lights because it sounds like the alternators charging ok till a load is Applied. Or maybe if the stereo is after Market not original for car try removing stereo to see if fault still happens might be fault with stereo
