In early scripting, the DeLorean's malfunctioning time circuits were due to a police shoot-out's or Old Man Peabody's having damaged the car from gunfire. These scenes were later rejected, and so the time display's flickering was presumably attributed to merely the amateur "prototypical" construction of the time machine (Doc had been the first one to successfully create time travel, after all, and so his initial invention, the somewhat cobbled-together sports-car rig, rather than the subsequently-constructed and more-professionally-designed steam-locomotive machine, would understandably be fairly primitive and experimental, and thus more prone to malfunctions), and to all the stress and battering about that it endured (especially during the periods with the inexperienced Marty, and the clumsy or infirm Biff at the controls) during its life up to that time.
