It's a ghost. Get out!!

Check ur door pin switches. They may be worn/broken.

 

im not an expert on cars but why would the door pin switch effect all the lights of the car? i need help badly.

HELP ME

 

my dads 89 civic had a problem similar to that, the constant dimming of his lights, it was his alternator.

but his were always flickering, stopped or driving.

 

How old is your battery? It might not be the alternator since everything's cool when moving (when the alternator is doing its thing).

 

It's your alternator

 

Go somewhere and have your alternator tested.

 

He doesn't need to test it it's bad. Actually the voltage reg. is bad but you can't buy it seperate so you buy a new alternator.

 

Thanks guys I appreciate the help. I'll take notice that its the alternator.

 

Ahhh, the voltage regulator. Do those aftermarket voltage regulators (Sun) serve a real purpose? Are they worth it?
