Problem with 12v lights

[champstar]

I have a problem with my overcab, bathroom and over lounge 12v lights....they flicker when switched on then die..they do revive after a while.
Now at home the fridge is hooked up for this weekends trip....now when the lights trip the 230v fridge switches off...comes back on when the light switch is switched off.

Have checked fuses..all ok..not all my 12v lights are affected..but we do need the bathroom and overcab ones.

Can anyone suggest something to help as this is really confusing and bugging me.

cheers

What sort of bulbs you have in there ? If these are fluoriscent 30cm; it could be one of the bulbs has a short circuit internally (or are at the end of their life) or the electronic starter disfunctions. Change the flickers for one you are sure it works.... or swap everthing for LED's

The flicker is a concern, if they are 'normal' bulbs then it sounds like a voltage stabiliser giving up the ghost, or for some reason something is drawing too much current.
