Today on my way to work it started to rain so i put my windows up and turned on the A/C. I guess it was a few minutes later i noticed that the digital clock started to blink just the clock. (I have a 94 prelude VTEC). The clock must have blinked about 6 or 7 times when i noticed that the speedo and tach started going nutz. This happened for about 5sec and then everything was normal for the rest of the ride to work. If anyone knows what may have caused this please help. There are no CEL present. Just a reminder it was only the digital clock and the speedo and tach.

Thanks for any info.

 

i'm guessing that noone has had this same problem before?

 

yes... so, i would guess your wrong. Ive heard it covered several times before. GL , your impatience may hurt you.

 

now my dash lights will not turn on unless i fiddle with the key in the ignition. Also the car will not start now it acts like it want to turn over but just dies after a second. Please help.

Thanks

Did the 4th Gen ludes suffer from the faulty ignition switches like some 5th Gens(5th gen was recalled)?

 

Yes I changed mine once .. so far.. has ran great ever since..

 

Do you have a lot of keys on your keychain?? I've heard of having too many keys (weight) causing the ignition to go bad.

Are you sure your alternator is working properly?

 

I think it is the electical part of the ignition switch going to order the part Monday.
