Electrical help

I just wanted to know, my truck has a lot of LEDs on it since I've replaced many of the bulbs, I was wondering if this has any effect on my wiring nd electrical bucks recently I've noticed some lights flickering from time to time. Is there anything I can add to stabilize the electrical system?

um better battery or add a capacitor but you would benefit from a better battery more. (initial thought)

and what do you mean flickering? more detail is needed!!!

I mean like I put led bulbs in the gauges and center console but the bulb for the rpm keeps flickering looks like its losing power, I've checked multiple times nd the bulb is in correctly. And as for the battery do you have any recommendations as to which I e is a good one?
 
LEDs use less power then regular bulbs. All the bulbs in your gauge cluster should be on the same circuit, so if one section is flashing its probably a bad connection.
Having the battery checked isnt a bad idea but a capacitors not going to do anything.
 
Saw something like this pop up a while back, and the guys going out that some dielectric grease or whatever it is solved the issue. It was just a weak connection between the bulb and the circuit board.

Hmm doesn't seem like a bad idea I actually have the grease but at the moment I installed that bulb I didn't have it on me so I didn't put any all the other ones are fine and I did use the grease on those, I'm going to try it out it could b the source of things
