August 2002 Fire

Occasionally while driviig with headlights on, (day or night) all dash related lights just start flickering. It will continue sporadically for some brief or extended period of time (less than a minute or as long as 10 to 15 minutes). My concern is a possible short exists which could either shut down the electrical system or create an electrical fire in the vehicle.
