Started the car, everything was fine drove off a block later my guage lights where flickering a getting brighter, pulled over and saw my negitive battery terminal was loose. I snugged it up as good as i could till i got home. I then drove away, then my radio started turning on a and off also my guages, and my low beams stopped working but not my brights. I then checked all fuses, my ecu, S.R.S, and ACG fuses where blown. Replaced the fuses and SRS and ecu keep blowing when ignition is turned on.
Could this be the main relay? Alternator? connections are all good no shorts, grounds are good, never had anything like this go wrong.

man honestly this sounds like a tuff one......check the wiring at the ign. switch ...... and let me know .....

most likely a short some where, or one of your grounds could have a bad connection. my old civics head lights used to dim once in a while when it was at lower R's, and a battery/alternator fixed that issue.

tested alternator, seems the diode is out putting out like 20volts, this could explain the mutliple fuses blowing out, will find out more when new alternator arrives

Installed new alternator and the ecu acg fuses are still blowing, any ideas?

check the wires.
there could be a short somewhere.

conekiller123

all wires are good, all connections sodered and taped properly

hmmm thats all that i could think of besides
taking it in to someone to look at it.

checked the connections on the piggy back to the ecu, i unplugged the ecu and turned the ignition on and the piggyback now turns on and fuses dont blow, could this be a faulty ecu?

check the sp sensor and the 7.5 fuse for it, could be a issue with a broken wire in a o2 sensor grounding out im seeming to have the same issue, and i guess there's a wire behind the IM that can get pinched and torn to also cause the fuse's to blow so take a look, it's more then likely a short.

fuse is good, o2 wires are good, ecu and acg fuses are still blowing. Im stumped
