wen i drive my car kinda idles and all my lights dim...i thought it was my subs but i took them out and they still do the same...i thought it was a bad alternator but i swaped motors and its still doing it...any idea guys?

 

Bad ground, bad battery??

 

i thought it was the battery but i got it recharged...

 

sounds like ur alternator to me, i'd suggest gettin it tested, run a dvom across ur battery while the car is runnin and see what the voltage is at, if its below 13 i'd check on that alternator

 

i thoguht it was my alternator too..but i swaped out the motor...unless the alternator on the new motor is bad too..
