I seem to be having some electrical issues with my 2011 Hyundai i30.

The indicator lights on the dash will start glowing and flickering. 90% of the time it is only the right turn signal light on the dashboard that is glowing but at times both indicator lights start glowing and flickering.

Here's a video of it:

The glow stops if I turn on my high-beams or when I actually use the signal.

The car has a new battery (because the car just died one day, then after 5 min it came back to life as I was waiting for a tow), serviced alternator, new sparkplugs, and new ignition coils. I'm really not sure what the issue can be.

Pls help, I'm sick of paying mechanics 100s of dollars each visit for them to just tell me they don't know.

That could be dry joints around the connectors on the dashboard circuit card. Mine did that during a hot summer years ago and then settled down and never did it again  :lol:

I'll have my electrical guy check that out.

Mine has been doing this for the past year, and now I'm giving the car to my brother since I'm thankful upgrading but I want to fix it before I give it to him.

But I don't know if it's something that small/inconsequential. This electrical issue has burnt 4 different ignition coils this past year.

Get your guy to check the waveforms put out by the regulator, not only the voltage.
There may be transients doing the damage.
