Dashboard lights flashing! HELP!

Hey guys. The dashboard lights,clock light and the radio display lights keep flashing in my 2000TL. This usually happens when my foot is on the brake pedal while the dimmer switch is set really low. Does anyone know why this is happening, and how I can fix it? HELP ME!!!

could be a sign that your alternator or battery is giving out.

Check your battery connections...Make sure you have good contact and that the cables are securely attached.
