More Electrical problems (warning lights)

Ok, I've had several electrical problems. Now heres another one! So I'm driving, and I"m in a hurry so I take a turn just a lil sharp, nothing to extreme, and I notice one of my warning lights flicker, so I stop and see if I can check it out, but its gone, so I'm kinda curious and I stop and nothing comes back on, so to find out what it was, I figure "I'll shut the car off and when I turn it on, I'll be able to see what light it was." So on with my plan and suddenly, none of the lights work, not a single one. So after screwing with it, tring a few more times, I descide to proceed on my way home. When I get home, I notice that my "brake" light works, so I think, ahhh, its all back to normal. So I shut my car off and turn it back on again, and again, nothing but my seatbelt and brake light work, and thats where we stand now.... So looking over my manual, I'm pretty sure that the light that flickered is the "Stop Light Malfunction Wraning Light" which now kinda makes sence to me. Anyways, any ideas (I realize that light is telling me my lights have malfunctioned, but how? any fueses I should know about? would that light stay on if there was still a problem, etc.) Thanks!

if the stop light warning is on, or flickering you have either a CPU needing re-soldering/replacing, or have a bad connection at the brake lights, or a bad bulb at the brake lights.

As far as the other lights not working, its probably your idiot lights/clock panel needs re-soldering/replacing.
