Default What's going on w/my car stereo?

I think there's something wrong w/my wiring in my car. Something in the current is wrong. Maybe I need grounding..I'm not sure.

I noticed that my lights in my car STEREO are flickering! ALso at high speeds my foglight flickers too!
Maybe they're unrelated?

ALso my cd changer in the back of my car never used to skip. It's an eclipse 12 disc changer, but more recently it's begun to skip. I put in a cd lens cleaner in there but it didn't seem to make much difference. Do you guys have any idea what it could be? Just old age? I've had it for 5 years.

IF anyone has had something similar happen or has theories..I'd appreciate your insights

Maybe new battery or a stronger one?

Default problem....

I would check your battery and alternator, dimming and flickering lights are definatly a bad sign and it may go as far as your alterantor no providing enough amperage to maintain the electrical system and charge your battery too. METAL
