Chrysler Sebring Convertible 2004 Dash lights flicker and go out when headlights or just the amber lights are turned on Any one know why?

The rheostat in the light stalk is dirty and getting a bad connection causing the dash lights to flicker dim to bright and so on. Try turning the reading and dash lights on and off several times moving the rotary switch from all the way off to all the way on abd back several times. This sometimes will clear the problem for a period. If not, the light stalk will require replacement.

Your 1998 dodge Dakota sport dash light and dome lights go off and then you can hit the brake they will dimI can push on the dash at the left side and they brighten can you help?

I've had some cars in the past with similar issues... The dimming dash lights upon braking turned out to be a weak battery. As the brake lights went on, it took power away from the dash lights. On another car, my dash lights would sometimes flicker. I found that the dimmer control was loose. Sometimes fiddling with that switch will help.

What causes the lights in your house to be turned on by turning on the washer machine?

This may happen if the washer machine and the light are connected to the same electrical circuit. When the washer machine turns on, it may cause a power surge that triggers a temporary voltage drop in the circuit, which can cause the lights to dim or flicker momentarily.
