HELP!!! 1993 civic lights dimmed/no power
okay here we go, i have a 1993 honda civic LX 1.5L, i have replaced the alternator 4 times now (all free under warrantee, thank god), and i just got a new battery today but my problem is still there, sorta. About 3 days ago my car lights and everything in the dash went really dim and then all of a sudden when i pressed the brakes the radio went out, the day after the same thing happened AND the speedometer went out along with my check engine light going on. I jumped my car and charged my battery which made the CEL go away, but the battery still died after about 10 mins. so i went out and got a new battery today and put that in but all the lights in the dash are still really dim along with my headlights, and there is no change if i rev the engine or have it idling. I also (i don't know if this means anything, but...) checked the oms with the battery disconnected, and it showed up off the dial on my voltmeter. any clue what could be happening? I really can't afford to bring my car to a mechanic to get it fixed as I'm a student trying to pay bills by delivering pizzas with this car... so I'm hoping its nothing too hard to fix, thanks

Check https://honda-tech.com/tech-misc-15/...-draw-2893985/ this out and this just dawned on me. Check fuse number 12 under the dash, might be blown causing the charging system not to work properly.
