OK... weird problem... when i'm driving at night i see that three of my lights on my dash flicker, they are the low coolant light, the low voltage light and the hand brake light. they flicker light and dark. i just put a new alternator belt on it wich was my original thought because the belt controls the alternator and water pump. so i thought that wouild have been the problem any thoughts???

Those three lights represent an issue with the charging system, so my bet would be on your recently replaced ALT belt. Check the tension on the belt and make sure your crank pulley isn't seperating.
