my dome light does the same thing, but any way just a question do you have a sub? if so does it do it when it hits? if thats when it happens you need a capacitor.

check your ground wires.

nope no system at all. just stock speakers and clarion headunit. if someone lives near nashville as can fix it I will be willing to pay. NEED my car back on the road ASAP!!!

Check the grounds, deff. However, theres something called the ELD (electronic load detector) under the fuse box in the engine bay, take it out and clean it with electrical contact cleaner and see if that helps, its just a guess

Or if you have a junkyard around you, you can just go and pull a fusebox, I don't think cleaning it does any good.

I didi have a check engine code for my eld I think it was high curent load I think?

z6hatchboy

that more than likely the problem, so fix that then

thanks. so its under the fuse box right? or in it? I dunno much about electrical that y Im stumped.

z6hatchboy

its under it, so you may have to take a ratchet and socket, if thats what holds it down. Go to yahoo images, and type "honda eld" its the 3rd pic to the right i believe. That one is from a 99-00 civic but it'll give you a good idea

if you knew you had that code why did you not do anything about it? its important to get them fixed so you wont be stumped with why do i have so and so issues.

well i just found out lastnight that i had the code and it was after I replaced the alt and bat. I dont have a scan tool so I had to fit it (or so I thought) and take it to auto zone and have my buddy scan it for me.
