What lights go on and off? Warning lights? Dash lights? Turn signal lights?

How old are the batteries? That's the first place I would check. Have them tested.

A weak battery will NOT cause the battery light to illuminate. Have your alternator tested but most parts stores will yield incorrect results.

Taking your foot off the throttle WILL cause power to decrease.
