Best Answer

If the loose cable is the main one from the negative side of the battery, then everything will flicker simultaneously with the key on and the engine stopped. When the engine is running, the alternator will keep things energized. If you have a loose groung cable on one particular accessory, only that accessory will flicker or just remain off.
