Default 99 Accord EXV6 -- Electrics

Have a 99 EXV6 that just broke 100K, well maintained. Upon starting the car today, the following indicator lamps stayed on: maintenance, brake, charging system, and all doors and trunk "open lights". The engine seems to run fine and the lamps stayed lit upon re-starting the engine. Any ideas?

Get your radio code in hand ...then unhook the battery negative cable for a minute.
Hook the battery back up and try again. Resets the multiplex control unit.

Hondadude --- thanks for your suggestion. Going to try that today. By disconnecting the negative cable, will I run into any problem with the alarm systems?

forget that

turn everthing off and set the intermittent wiper ring to the moddle position and turn the car on, (do not start it) wait 10 sec, and turn the car off. that resets it without having to disconnect the battery.


If you turn your car on and you got the door ajar and break and alt lights, time to replace that POS delphi alt. lights may go off as you rev the motor.

like zeroice said, replace it asap before you are stuck and need a new battery becuase your alt toasted it.
