Thanks! What diagnostics did you do to know it was the voltage sensor? I don't want to just replace parts.

Further tests confirmed the sensor was bad. Since our symptoms are alike, it's likely the same for you. Replacing the sensor should work, or a shop will know.

Thanks, your experience helped a lot. I took it to a shop, and they said the battery sensor was bad. The 315€ repair fixed everything.

I had something similar with my Barchetta. Weak starts and flickering lights. I'd check the voltage sensor; that fixed it for me.
