okay i found the battery and it is dead .4. if i replace this battery that should solve the trip reset issue which in turn would cause the lights to blink when it is tripping and resetting. Right? Thank you so much for the help! by the way were you a pilot, its the picture. Keith

where is the coach battery located?

okay i tested the voltage when the engine was off and it was @ 12 and when it was running it was @14. I also noticed that when the lights blink it is accompanied with a click click sound. It will go click click then pause and do it again even with the lights off. There is this little solenoid looking thing attached to the body right next to the master cylinder and the brake fluid with a pos and neg cable coming out of it and i think this is where the noise is coming from. Would you know what that is? Man i never sounded so ignorant about cars in my life. Sorry for all the dumb questions and issues.

I have 3 belts as well 1 for the crankshaft 1 for the alternator and 1 for the air conditioner. It looks like the only 1 that's missing is the air conditioner. I will test the voltage on the battery tonight

This may sound completely ignorant, but does the 1986 have two belts one for the drivetrain and a separate on for the alternator?

Connections are fine. But the lights dim when heat goes on and then gets brighter when I turn the heat back off. Could this mean I need an alternator?

I will check those when I get home. The only time it does it is when I am driving. Thanks

Hi guys thanks for the info. It is a 1986 dolphin with a 4cyl 22r-e engine. And its all the lights headlight tail and running. Its just weird to me

Hello we just inherited our first toyota dolphin motorhome and it seems that when I turn the lights on at night and drive they blink. I noticed that there are 2 pulley's next to the drivetrain that do not have a belt could this be the issue? I don't lose engine power but I'm afraid my lights will stop working while driving. Thank you for the help
