Default electrical help??

Just the other day it was about 9 degrees outside and i had left my car
out overnight. i started it and the trip computer wasnt working and it
was as if the left turn signal was stuck on, i drove down the road about 2
miles and than everythign came on and it worked fine. i thought it was
just because it was cold. Then just today, it was about 33 degrees
outside and the same thing happened when i was just pulling out of a gas
station. my battery is fully charged and i dont know what else it could
be. Also when i accelerate fast, my headlights seem to dim. And the
center air flap does not allow any air to come out, no matter which switch
i put it on, it comes out the defrost only. could this all be related?

please help.

thanks all
andrew

dimming headlamps may be signaling a loose alternator belt. turn sig may be the steering column switch going bad, trip computer, bad ground? (problem with the PCB in the dash?). the AC may be a flap motor/potentiometer problem, do you have elec. climate control, or manual? (just a note, i can't spell worth crap). that problem is only with electric CC, the manual controls (flaps) are cable operated...

i doubt there is any relation due to the nature of their seperate circuits.
