Flickering Check Engine Light

2005 Honda Civic EX

I've done some brief searching around and can't find anything on this anywhere. My check engine light flickers; specifically when the headlights are on and it flickers stronger and in time with my turn signals. I'm thinking it's a weak electrical connection somewhere but have no idea where to start looking; seeing if anyone else has seen this before.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Flickering Check Engine Light

Sounds like a poor ground to me. Check your grounds. Specifically #17 in this diagram https://parts.sonshonda.com/showAsse...rimLevel=24777
and the bolt on the alternator bracket that acts as a ground.
Check your alternator and battery too.
